Most people want their backyard swimming pool to showcase their own personal style. These days there are lots of ways to customize a pool.
Here are 6 ways you can make your swimming pool one of a kind!
1) Take your friend’s pool up a level! Perhaps you like a friend’s pool, but you also want to be unique. You can use the general layout or the main shape of your friend’s pool, but by changing a few features you can make your own. You can add a spa feature, such as a hot tub. If you friend has one too, just move it to the other side of the pool for a fresh look. You can also change the elevation with a raised pool deck.
2) Add fire or water features. To make your pool even more amazing, add fire or water features. There are many options available including waterfalls, fountains and sprays. A look that is really hot right now is a rock waterfall. It gives a natural look to any pool. You can also add a fire element, such as a fire bowl, for ambiance or excitement.
3) Create a new pool shape. You can start with an existing pool shape, and make it your own by changing some of the angles and curves of the pool. A few small changes to the angles can make a significant difference to the overall look.
4) Think outside the pool. The look of the surface around the pool can give your pool its own unique style. The color and pattern of the pavers contributes to the overall uniqueness of your pool. Landscaping and shade areas can also be incorporated to make a unique swimming pool look.
5) Light it up! Lighting can be a amazing addition to your pool. You could add underwater lights, border lights or even floating lights. Lighting can also increase the amount of time you spend in your pool, making it a popular night-time destination.
6) Contact Grand Vista Pools. We at Grand Vista Pools know how to design one-of-a-kind swimming pools. In our decades of pool building, we have seen (and built) it all. We take the time to get to know our clients, and as a result we can suggest a unique combination of features that result in a one-of-a-kind pool that exhibits their unique personality.
One of the most unique pools we've built was for a customer who wanted a floating boulder in the middle of their pool. It was a large pool, so we placed a column in the deep end and then lowered a large boulder onto it. The customer wanted his children to be able to jump off the boulder, so we also built a bench around the column so the children had a way to climb onto the boulder. It also serves as a great place for adults to sit on out in the deep end.
We’d love to help you design your own unique pool. Contact us today at Grand Vista Pools today!
