Imagine chilly Dubai nights with warm flames flickering at the center. We build custom sunken fire pits with surrounding benches, using natural stone, lava rock, or concrete pavers.

2. Poolside Sunken Lounge

One of the most luxurious additions to modern villas—Gardenia creates sunken seating right beside or inside your pool. It’s like having a private outdoor resort.

3. Garden-Integrated Sunken Area

Surround yourself with plants, pathways, and serenity. This style is perfect for those seeking a natural look with a touch of privacy.

4. Pergola-Covered Sunken Lounge

Combine shade and style. We can install wooden or aluminum pergolas over your sunken seating for comfort and sun protection.

Sunken seating has become one of the most in-demand outdoor features in modern landscaping, and here’s why Dubai homeowners are choosing it:

🔥 Stylish and Modern Appeal

Gardenia’s custom designs reflect contemporary luxury—curved layouts, elegant stone finishes, built-in lighting, and weather-resistant cushions that elevate your backyard.

🛋️ Creates a Focal Point

Whether you're entertaining guests or unwinding with family, a sunken lounge becomes the centerpiece of your garden or patio.

🧱 Perfect for Fire Pits and BBQs

Many Dubai families are pairing their sunken seating areas with a built-in fire pit or outdoor BBQ, adding warmth and functionality year-round.

🌿 Blends Seamlessly with Nature

At Gardenia, we ensure your sunken seating flows with your landscape design—surrounded by lush greenery, water features, or minimal hardscaping for a Zen effect.

Sunken seating refers to a recessed seating area that’s built into the landscape, often integrated with fire pits, pool edges, or pergolas. It creates a cozy, sunken lounge that’s slightly below ground level, offering both privacy and a touch of luxury.

These designs are perfect for:

Evening gatherings around a fire pit

Poolside relaxation

Outdoor movie nights

Private garden conversations
