Roman or Grecian swimming pools blend curves and edges to create unique shapes where these designs are based on ancient pools.

The Roman in ground swimming pool is unmistakable in its design. It draws the eye with a rectangular base that flows into what is known as a “Roman pool end” – stylized corners and semicircles in place of straight sides. This style of swimming pool is a tribute to historic Italian architecture. Straight lines, elegant colours and classic lighting combine to create a luxurious pool and poolside area. Roman in-ground swimming pools typically feature rectangular pools and a simple yet elegant design.

Greek in-ground swimming pools are similar but different enough to warrant a closer look at their timeless designs. Rectangular pots are similar but have cut corners. A strong reminder of classic Greek architecture, this elegant look is the perfect centrepiece for your outdoor living space. While a bit of the pool area is lost due to the truncated corners, this style more than makes up for it. A Greek inground pool with walk-in steps looks very elegant.

Almost like a sculpture in the landscaping, kidney-shaped pools are a great choice for residential swimming pools. They help place a shallow and deep end naturally. Kidney-shaped pools offer a sleek, contemporary feel, and their asymmetrical shape easily fits into smaller spaces without sacrificing style.

The advantage of a modern kidney-shaped swimming pool is that it combines the functionality of a traditional lap pool with the stylish shape of a free-form swimming pool. Other than that, kidney-shaped pools can include swim seats and non-slip steps. As for considerations, the pool design includes flexible dimensions which is ideal for smaller area.

A figure-8 pool is similar to the number 8, in the shape of a circle or circle, with a narrower area in the middle merging two wider areas, like an hourglass.

When choosing a pool layout, the first factor to consider is size. When it comes to the size of a pool, one’s said is limited, as the extent of the space determines the maximum size of the pool. In addition, there are building codes and safety regulations to follow. Pool depth is the second factor to consider, especially for younger children. Swimming pools can also come in many shapes. Older pools are likely to be rectangular, perfect for exercising. Irregular or round pools are considered more relaxing shapes for gathering and children’s activities.

The area around the pool can be designed with wood or stone decks, using natural or synthetic wood or natural or tiled stone depending on the style and maintenance preferred. Stone can also be used to create a low boundary wall around the entire pool.

 

Swimming Pool Design #4: L Shaped Pools

L-shaped pools seem to open up new dimensions and are perfect for creating infinity pools by creating a unique experience with different views.

Typically, the two legs of an L-shaped in ground pool have different water depths and face different activities which made it suitable for children from different age group.

A popular option is to use the longer legs for an activity area or lap pool, while the shorter legs provide a place to relax. The shorter legs can even be a Baja shelf on which older children can dip their toes and toddlers can splash around.

Opting for an L-shaped pool can make your preschool to stand out while appealing to you and future parents to bring their children in.

Multi-sided or polygon pools are generic because the number of edges present in the pool can be changed into a hexagon with six sides, an octagon with eight, or a decagon with ten sides.

The foundation of modern pool design begins with its shape. In most cases, this means a geometric pool shape with clean lines. Of course, standard rectangles are a common choice.

You can modify the basic rectangular pool in a number of ways by changing the corners or adding a “cut-out” into the perimeter. Consider go beyond rectangles and upgrade to custom geometry shape.

The term “lagoon pool” generally refers to a free-form swimming pool that resembles a natural body of water. Free-form or organically shaped swimming pools stand out in even the most mundane space.

Taking a naturalistic approach, these are often accompanied by man-made rock formations, waterfalls and themed landscaping. There may be many plants and shrubs around the lagoon pool, which are also usually blue, green, turquoise or sandstone.

Lagoon-shaped swimming pools are usually free-form swimming pools with many curves. Linear pools like square, roman end or rectangular pools will not make good lagoon pools as they should mimic the curved shape of natural ponds and lagoons.

Fiberglass, concrete, and vinyl lined pools can all be lagoon pools. Many vinyl-lined and fiberglass pools have freeform shapes, and concrete pools can be customized to any shape you like.

 

Swimming Pool Design #7: Above-Ground Swimming Pools

Above-ground swimming pools are becoming more and more popular. This is because people are starting to realize how many benefits they offer compared to classic in-ground swimming pools. This style is outdated because it’s inconvenient, expensive, and not even more fun than an above-ground pool. The advantages of having an above-ground pool far outweigh the advantages of having an in-ground pool.

Above-ground pools are an economical option that offers quick installation and portability. They are surrounded by a deck or patio connecting them to the main living area. Most of these pools are made of aluminum, resin or steel with vinyl lining. Easy to assemble and disassemble which making these pools are a fascinating DIY project.

 

Swimming Pool Design #8: Modern Architectural Pools

The Modern Architecture Swimming Pool is the latest yet statement addition to the modern preschool, featuring high-tech features and materials. These are custom designed and can be seen in homes that incorporate indoor/outdoor lifestyles, especially celebrities.

Modern and contemporary style is defined by its sleek, simple lines. Today’s modern pools often contain square or rectangular basins that drop directly to the bottom of the pool, creating the illusion of a perfectly geometric space, even if the pool includes a sloping floor. The edges of these pools are often sharp rather than rounded, with little or no treatment to delineate the edge of the pool.

Pool decks are often made of polished concrete or wood, turning this outdoor feature into a beautiful addition that seems to flow directly from your indoor living space. Modern swimming pools often include extensive lighting systems to accentuate the clean lines of the pool after dark for both safety and aesthetics.
