            you mean layout of the actual project? I would try to make the steps go down in both directions if you have space in the foreground. Wrap them on the corner for a more generous use of the space. Is that a door at the building? Is that why the steps are going there? Looks like one too many landings to be nice, but appears you have a level challenge--- I'd prefer to make all the steps come down to one level, perhaps it needs to then step down to the path. But I don't like single steps out in the middle of things either...

            So have one set of steps go to the door and one set come out towards us with a planter (and that one step you have between)? Maybe that planter would relate to the planter on the left of the step. I'd put a handrail at the wall beyond and not have one in the middle of the steps if you are OK with that. Can the steps move a little towards the pool to make the landing less abrupt? It looks like that can't much

            or are you asking something else?

              That's exactly what i'm asking. This house has been renovated about 3 times in different areas, where they join is problematic. The door is one step up the pool four, there is a little space to play with at the top. It's difficult to understand your suggestion. The rail your right should be pushed back under the light. I put it here to prevent any confusion with the steps and try and make it safer.Thanks for the feedback.

                Well, I guess one part i mean is put a planter to divide the steps instead of the rail.

                    You're welcome. Nice picture! I admire your rendering skills.

                    I guess I do like the direction, the various stepping forms are juxtaposed on two axes, even the hedges. The planter highlights the entrance to the pool deck. I do feel uneasy about swimsuits and cacti though. Heh!

                    Those are nice plants BTW. Did you model them?

                    Congrats!

                      Thanks pbacot the trees & pot plants are from evermotion. I use a proxy in the maxwell plugin.Yes Cacti means respect & caution but this is Cyprus ! Thanks for taking the time.

                        NICE modification to the stairs there mate! Great recommendation Peter!!!

                        Mate have you played at all with the shift lens? Very useful for landscaping renders!

                          Cheers Richard, no i haven't ever used the shift lens feature, sometimes i use the 2 point perspective camera in sketch up though.
