Landscape, architecture and the art of limiting drippy bathing suits indoors...please meet the ULazyA Pool Palapa.  The indoor outdoor structure, a cabana, toilet, shower and open kitchen bar, is surrounded by deck and patio spaces that take advantage of both sun and shade.  The lines of the deck fold up the palapa walls and take over the roof to create the out of kilter form.  In contrast with the strong angles, a painted steel pole supports a weightless curvy concrete table.  Then, the rhythm of the weathered steel fence screens the outdoor room, creating privacy, while the plantings offer a perfect softening at the edges to set the stage for the views.
