Thank you so much. Since my renovation, my pool is 18x42 because we removed the old, fiberglass steps and brought it out further with interior stadium seat type steps. They came out beautiful. The second step is a ledge that is 24". Along the length of one side of the pool is a raised garden bed which will have a stone retaining wall. Between that and the pools water edge is 4ft. On the opposite length side ether is about 12ft to the fence between myself and my neighbor, total sun side of pool) pool lies parallel in my backyard, with the deep end of course being furthest away from my house. Three is a "courtyard" type space right of the house that is enclosed with very tall shrubs that create total privacy. We haven't paved that yet and don't know what to put there, our hire to design (gardens vs patio together). Once out of that area, there is lawn of about 16ft to the pools edge where the new pool steps are, (some sun/shade). I'm just not sure how much patio I should do. I love the look of this, its very classic. Any suggestions would be very appreciated. Thank you so much!
