Environmental Oasis

Set just off Mecox Bay and the Atlantic ocean, this former farmland was transformed into an environmental oasis. The project consisted of the complete construction of two ponds, an island pool, spa, and several adjacent structures. Ruddicks' design has two ponds cradling an island - complete with pool and spa. The adjacent pool-house appears to float over the upper pond. PondWorks was involved with the design and planning of the ponds as well as their construction. The ponds catch much of the site water and are circulated by several high-efficiency pumps. The water passes through carefully designed constructed wetlands integrated into the pond edges in several locations.
