To create a successful pool design, make sure to consider the size of your yard and the landscaping surrounding the pool!
Adding a pool to your home is a great way to add value while investing in something your family will cherish for years to come. Building summer memories by the pool is a great way to bond with family and friends, but, how do you create a pool design that will flow with your garden and yard to create a stunning space? Working with a pool and spa designer can be incredibly beneficial to getting the perfect design. Having a professional, like one of the team members at Sunrise Pools, involved in your plan can help you find options you might not have considered. While you’re waiting for your meeting with a professional, here are five tips to help you come up with a successful pool design.
Safety
The most critical part of any successful pool design is to consider the safety aspects of your design. Ensuring that you have the proper fencing surrounding your pool is essential. Not only can it protect you from unwanted bathers, but it will prevent you from some liability. Plus, a well-designed fence can be a great way to add a clear break in your design while adding visual interest.
Function
Is your pool just for you? Your family? Do you want to host pool parties? The way you intend to use your pool can mean a lot of different things when it comes to design. If you’re going to swim laps, the pool you will need is very different than the one you will need if you want a place to take a refreshing dip. Consider what you intend to use the pool for because this function can help with many of the decisions you will need to make.
Proportion
Depending on the function of your pool you may need to adjust the size, but in general, you will want to consider the space you will be working with and how it affects what you can and should do. If you have too small or too large a pool for your space, it will look odd, so it’s essential to address the proportions and figure out the best way to utilize your space.
Landscape
While your pool is the primary focus, it’s the surrounding landscape that differentiates it from a big puddle to a design masterpiece. As you begin to consider your pool and spa design, make sure to take the surrounding area into account. If you work with your landscape rather than looking at it as an afterthought, you are one step closer to a successful pool design.
Lifestyle
Rules and regulations aside, one of the most important factors to consider is how your pool design will intersect with your lifestyle. With the newest technology, pool maintenance is no longer the burden it once was, which means your pool can be the relaxing oasis you deserve.
