Pools: Style Without Sacrificing Safety

Hi, my name is Katrina, and I have always had a pool. My parents had one when I was growing up, I have lived in apartment complexes with pools, and I currently have a pool in my yard. Through the years, I have paid close attention to how people position their pools, the designs they select and the fences they use. Personally, I am not a fan of super industrial looking or boring fences and pool designs. Instead, I like to see creative and beautiful ideas, and achieving a stylish pool is possible. Worried that it will disrupt your safety? Well, it wont. This blog has all kind of tips on achieving pool style without giving up on safety. Enjoy swimming in style!

Pool Construction Options For Outdoor Spaces And Integrated Features For Your New Oasis

If you are building a new pool, there are many different features that you will want to include in the design. You may want to have features that integrate into the outdoor living space and the design of your home. The construction of your new pool can include a custom design that helps create these integrations. The following pool construction options are some of the solutions that you can have done to build the perfect outdoor oasis:

Use Natural Rock and Plant Features

You can use natural features to help add to the design of your home. The pool design can include natural features like rock, which can be used for features like grottos, waterfalls, and other elements. You may also want to add planters with living plants around your pool, which can add life to the oasis. If you are planning adding planters with actual plants around your pool, there are some things to consider. You want to try to use plants with a slower growth rate. Evergreen plants are great because the leaves will not fall in the water in the fall or during droughts.

Open Courtyards and Retractable Roofs

The pool design can be integrated into the space inside your home, too. This can be done by using open courtyard features that open to the pool areas. There are several retractable features that can be added to your home for these pool design features. This can include a retractable roof or pool enclosure feature that provides a covered space that allows you to enjoy the space all year. The retractable roof features can be a great way to integrate the pool design into your interior living space.

Keep Outdoor Living Space Close to the Pool

The outdoor living space around your home can also be integrated into the pool design. This can be done during your pool construction by keeping the gathering spaces adjacent to the swimming areas. They can be moderately separated by doing things like using glass railings between them. The outdoor living space can include features like a pavilion, seating, and an outdoor kitchen. There are even options to have an outdoor fireplace built into the design, which can be finished with natural stone materials that match finishes in your pool. These features will integrate indoor and outdoor space into the design of your pool.

The outdoor oasis pool can integrate perfectly into your home design. Contact a pool construction service to start discussing the features you want for your home.
