The tonal color palette of white, grey and black is complemented by pops of chartreuse, yellows, oranges and greens throughout, creating a connection to the vibrant and eclectic Capitol Hill scene. The space is designed with a casual and whimsical-yet-adventurous aesthetic in mind. Statement pieces such as a glowing, internally lit DJ table and custom-made bar and geometric-shaped lights serve as focal points. Retractable awnings and misters were installed to ensure a comfortable temperature and adequate shade in the warmer months, while fire pits with semi-private breakout spaces were designed for the transitional season. Deck 11 offers an array of seating arrangements, including four resort cabanas, 26 lounge chairs, lounge seating clusters with and without firepits, a communal dining table with 12 barstools and a bar right off the pool with 12 barstools nestled at the countertop.
