RIVER HOUSE: Loxahatchee River Home Hardscape
A Contemporary Waterfront Hardscape Design
Shellco Construction delivered a distinctive waterfront hardscape installation for the River House on Jupiter's Loxahatchee River, featuring Graystone Tabby concrete with #3 Coquina Shell and Rice Rock aggregate, utilizing both sandblasted and polished finishing techniques to create visual contrast and functional performance for this contemporary waterfront estate. The project showcased advanced decorative concrete techniques through the execution of geometric pad designs with contrasting aggregate borders, requiring precise material placement and dual finishing processes to achieve the sophisticated aesthetic that complements the property's modern architectural design and prime riverfront location.
The aerial and detailed documentation reveals the complexity of combining multiple aggregate types and finishing techniques within a single hardscape installation, with the Graystone Tabby base providing the foundation for both Coquina Shell and Rice Rock aggregates that create visual interest and textural contrast. The combination of sandblasted and polished finishes demonstrates Shellco's technical expertise in executing multiple surface treatments that enhance both aesthetic appeal and functional performance for waterfront applications. This River House hardscape exemplifies Shellco's ability to deliver innovative concrete solutions that integrate seamlessly with contemporary architecture while providing durable, slip-resistant surfaces for luxury waterfront living on the Loxahatchee River.
