Explore different popular swimming pool styles
Infinity Pool
The infinity pool has become increasingly popular. Since it doesn’t have any edges, it has a ‘never ending’ feeling, creating the illusion of water seamlessly extending into the horizon. The water actually overflows into a basin and is recycled back into the pool. It can be designed in any shape and has a very luxurious resort feel.
Plunge Pool
Plunge pools tend to be shallower than traditional pools. Great for lounging, wading, and aqua exercising. They can even have jets to provide massages. The lower cost is a big benefit for the homeowner. The smaller size means reduced water requirements, easier maintenance, and less expensive to heat.
Lap Pool
A lap pool is typically built with healthy and fitness in mind. The Lap pool is usually rectangular in shape, narrow and long, usually about 45 feet in length and ranging from 3 feet in the shallow end and 5 feet in the deep end. Great for a smaller backyard. They are also easier to maintain, since they are quite as big as a traditional pool.
Freeform Shape
Freeform swimming pools are becoming the most popular. They can be any shape you can dream up. They have the appearance of bending seamlessly into the yard, creating a serene feel. Incorporating fire pits, waterfalls, and fountains for an elegant feel. For a natural feel they can trail through the landscape. They can also be designed with different areas in mind.
L Shape
Great for families with children because it clearly defines which end is shallow. The longer leg can be extended for swimming laps and activities. The shorter area is great for a Baja shelf for younger children to splash around and lounge chairs for adults. The short end also gives an elegant solution for pool steps. The L shape can also wrap around the house or patio for an intimate feel.
Rectangular Shape
This traditional shape typically has a shallow and deep end, with a seamless transition. It is great for swimming laps, playing games with the kids, and entertaining. A few amenities can make it unique, zero entry, splash pad, infinity edge, an attached hot tub, waterfall, and LED lighting. Finish it off with beautiful colored tiles and a dark colored plaster or even pebbles or glass beads.
