B= Mediterranean splendor is for you! You love the warm terra cotta colors of tile. You love beautiful curves and a splendid walkway that leads to your backyard oasis. Drama is a good thing! Dark metal, secluded nooks and great, rich texture are what makes your pool POP.

C= Modern, contemporary style for you. Your gorgeous abode inside is carried out to your lovely backyard hideaway! You want the classic, organic lines of your furniture and kitchen to extend out to your landscape…. You crave a place of refuge and retreat. It’s perfect for family time- with simple surfaces that are foot friendly but it’s also new, fresh and state of the art.

D= Fun Rustic Romantic: it’s the traditional surface with a real kick. While you love the traditional and even colonial curved surfaces that create comfort and stability, you want it to be fun! It’s YOUR lifestyle… rich stone, simple lines, gorgeous lush tile in an exotic hue. But there are lots of places to relax and rest, not too many looks or textures. Just right….
