Project Description
“Our Straight Designs’ team worked on all of the public amenities including a ground-up pool, gym, leasing center, and clubhouse. Our favorite area to work on was the pool because it is the first of its kind in the City of Anaheim. As a company, we were proud to have taken a dead area and transform the space with an innovative design. The residents themselves have been vocal about their excitement and satisfaction with the space. As a team, Straight Designs has participated in a wide variety of memorable projects, from rooftop pool decks to versatile clubhouses and more. Each and every project has its own unique process that sets it apart from the others. However, this ground-up pool has been one of our favorites, as it was created to replace a lifeless and unimaginative courtyard. This undertaking was the first for everyone involved. It was a marvelous experience to see it from demolition to completion. It has also become one of the key sales tools for the property to attract new residents. In addition, the pool deck has played a huge part of raising the property’s Yelp ratings from an average of 1 star reviews to 5 star reviews! Being able to provide an extreme makeover is what we proudly strive for in every project that we are involved in.
It was our first pool installation. We have previously enjoyed working on pool decks but never had an opportunity to install the pool itself. This unique opportunity created a design challenge that was enjoyable for our team to take on.
During one of our site-visits, I spoke with four local office workers that stated that they would never live in a building without a pool. Needless to say, OC culture requires water in their living spaces, and we were happy to fulfill that need through a stunning exterior.
Our intent was to create an eclectic mix of influences. Prior to our work, the property was bland. We wanted to spice up the area with our furnishings and designs to bring life to the entire property.
We have a lot of pride in this project because our team was so committed and dedicated to the design of the property with the end result in mind. Our effort to bring the space to life resulted in an emotional attachment to the project.” – Solomon Mansoor (Straight Designs’ Principal Designer)
