NAPLES, FLORIDA · DESIGN-BUILD STUDIO
A small studio designing and building custom pools, hardscape, and outdoor environments along the Gulf Coast. Each project is drawn and built by the same hands.
DESIGN
Every project begins on paper. Site studies, hand sketches, and material selection drawn against the architecture of the home.
BUILD
From excavation to final stone, the team that drew the project is the same team that builds it. No project managers between you and the work.
LIVE
Pools, gardens, loggias, and outdoor rooms made to be lived in for decades. Materials chosen to age, not to date.
A studio for outdoor architecture
Mariner & Stone was founded on the belief that a pool is not an amenity. It is an architectural element of the home. Every project begins with the site, the architecture, and the way a family lives within both. The result is outdoor space that feels inevitable, not added.
Drawn, laid, lived in
Six to eight projects each year, no more. Vanishing-edge pools, perimeter-overflow water features, limestone terraces, dry-laid stone walls, loggias, and the considered details that make an outdoor space feel like a room rather than a yard.

Selected Press
Conversations with editors at coastal design and architecture publications.
Whitten and his team treated our property as if it were their own. The result is more beautiful than what we imagined, and quieter, which is what we asked for.

They listen first. They draw second. The result is a pool and a garden that feel like they have always been there
We've worked with three different design-build firms over the years. Mariner & Stone is the first one where the drawings on day one matched the work on the final day.

TWELVE YEARS OF QUIET WORK
A small studio with a deliberate practice. The numbers stay small on purpose.
