A lot of people want their outdoor living space and swimming pool remodeling projects to reflect their personal style and interests. If you're one of them, you’re in the right place—this article shares seven creative ideas to help you design custom swimming pools Tampa FL that match your lifestyle.
7 Secrets to a Unique Tampa Swimming Pool
1) Shape it! Many Tampa pool builders use templates to churn out lots of pools with the same shape. Meh, boring. While there's nothing wrong with starting with a common pool shape, ask your custom swimming pool designer to make it unique by changing some of the angles and curves of the pool. Even a few small changes can result in something unique.
2) Water it! There are many kinds of water features we can build into and around swimming pools today - waterfalls, fountains, massaging jets are just to name a few. The important thing is to design your pool to have a combination of water features that fits your style and use of your pool.
3) Rock it! Adding stone to a pool will give it a beautiful, natural look. There are many different colors and textures of stone available too. The stone could be used to create a stunning waterfall, a secluded grotto, or rustic planters.
4) Light it! Lighting will also give unique character to your pool. There are tons of pool lighting options - underwater lights, border lights and even floating lights. Some lighting systems allow you to change the color of the lights to fit your mood or the theme of an event. It also adds safety.
5) Fire it! Nothing heats up a scene like fire! You can really take an outdoor living area to the next level with fire features like a fire pit, fire bowls and/or tiki torches.
6) Plant it! The trees, bushes and flowers planted around a pool give it a unique ambiance. Landscaping completes the look. Palm trees, tropical plants, or beachy flowers can transport your backyard to another world.

One of the most unusual custom swimming pools we built... was for a client who wanted a "floating" boulder in the middle of their swimming pool. It was a large pool, so we placed a column in the deep end and then lowered a large boulder onto it. The client 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 and hang out in the deep end of the pool.
