The swimming pool, designed by Outdoor Productions, Inc., features a spa and stepping stone walk and tiled beach entry. In keeping with the large scale of the home, the pool measures 40 by 60 feet.

For those that lean towards a more classic, upscale pool design, Van Kirk & Sons offers our Roman or Geometric style pools. The overarching elegance and practicality of this timeless style makes it the perfect choice for a customer looking for a pool that is more symmetrical in form.

This large free form pool has two impressive focal points. The oversized raised spa has a faux infinity glass tile spillway. There is a large, pass through stone masonry fireplace on one side and a large, flagstone beach entry on the rest of the perimeter leading to a large lounging sun ledge. On the sun ledge are three Jandi color LED water bubblers that work in concert with the Jandi color LED pool lights in the spa and pool. Opposite the spa area is a large rockfall with grotto, Big Ride slide, and smaller wrap around waterfall. This is a 9′ diving pool that is approximately 1,080 sq ft area. It has the premium Caribbean Blue Luminous Beadcrete plaster from Pebble Tech as its interior finish. Custom home design by Brent Gibson Classic Design, built by Oxford Homes.

AquaTerra took advantage of every inch this backyard offered and created a minimalist zero edge artistic pool environment. The backyard includes a zero-edge finished in glass tile, spa, water lounge, multiple benches, ipe decks, automated linear fire feature, water feature wall, hand sanded leuders limestone decking, LED lighting, landscaping, and landscape lighting. The surge basin is cohesively constructed with the pool structure and is located under the lower ipe deck in front of the linear fire feature. If you notice the spa wall is the same level as the perimeter zero edge beams, when in spa mode the entire pool automatically lowers 2.5” into the surge basin. In addition, if the kids want to have fun in the pool, with one touch of a button the entire body of water lowers 2.5” to decrease water loss and bather splash out. Successful contemporary or modern architecture is created in the details; no detail was overlooked in this awesome elegant backyard retreat. Photo Credit: Daniel Driensky Photography

Outdoor Elements maximized the available space in this beautiful yard with a contemporary, rectangular pool complete with a large tanning deck and swim jet system. Mosaic glass-tile accents the spa and a shell stone deck and coping add to the contemporary feel. Behind the tanning deck, a large, up-lit, sheer-descent waterfall adds variety and elegance to the design. A lighted gazebo makes a comfortable seating area protected from the sun while a functional outdoor kitchen is nestled near the backdoor of the residence. Raised planters and screening trees add the right amount of greenery to the space.
