Designing Your Pool

Good pool landscape design can create a paradise in your backyard, adding a new dimension of living to your home.

Pool styles, features and landscape treatments can work to incorporate the architectural style of your house and area, creating a continuous living space.

Think about your current needs and lifestyle requirements, weighed against universal appeal that will increase your property's investment value.

Selecting the right size pool and style

Pools come in a wide range of styles, sizes, shapes and designs. When deciding on the style, think about the size and layout of your backyard block.

Smaller blocks look better with a simple and contemporary rectangular pool, while larger blocks offer more space for free-form designs.

Also consider the amount of usage expected. How often will you be entertaining, and how many guests do you expect to use it each week?
