The pool house design was produced in close collaboration with the project architect. The architect produced rough sketches of his ideas for the new building and then stepped back to allow Tanglewood to develop the design using their “know- how” of conservatory and pool house construction. Back and forth went the ball, with the architect continuously challenging Tanglewood to solve difficult design and detail issues with increasing elegant solutions.

The resulting final pool house design looks deceptively simple. On the one side, it is a straightforward symmetrical “conservatory” building. On the other side, it is subtle blending of the new conservatory with the original shingle style architecture of the existing home. The elegant design of the roof structure bridges the two just as the pool house enclosure itself bridges the two wings of the house.
