I haven't posted for quite a long time, but we have been pretty busy since we moved to Granada Hills almost 3 years ago. here is a view of the pool as it was when we moved.

It looked like a good spot for a Tiki bar! So I went on sketch up to draw something that sounded possible to do by myself.

Then it was time to start. I started in september by removing the original pool pump shed in bad condition and building a breeze block wall instead.

Then time to start the shed . The floor is 15.25 feet x 7.5 feet rests on the concrete slab

The plan was to be able to use the lounge for the breakfast and to enjoy the morning sun. The front of the shed is facing East. So we put a glass door on this side. It is also great to have a pool view at night.

I did first a mockup of the A frame because it was not easy to see the details on sketch up.

Then it was time to build the thing. On this pic you can also see the sliding doors for the main entrance

And to add thatch

Here are a few more pictures, in no particular order.

I will try to add more details in the next weeks. I also post on instagram @atomic_pad
