I’ve never seen anything like this before! 25 men installing the black Pebbletec finish for the pool at our modern farmhouse in Sherborn. I can only imagine all the years of trial and error to perfect this process. They used all sorts of tools and techniques that you won’t find in a book. Very impressive for this amazing pool. I cant wait to call these guys for our next Jensen Hus custom build.

No matter how fancy or complicated the project, we still use the line drawing to revise plans and make changes. Not everything needs to be a perfect CAD drawing to do the job. Our pool house in Sherborn is a great example of this. Clients want to spice things up and customize this space so we have a foundation in before we have completed the final drawings. We know this is the footprint and the basic outline, but the final design is on the drawing board!
