Creating custom pool designs with personalized features can give any homeowner a luxury pool experience. Today’s pools are no longer just an amenity for the homeowner and visitors to enjoy a swim. Today homeowners want custom pool designs to create an outdoor living space – a personal paradise – to relax and enjoy. Let’s look at six custom swimming pool features which will give you a luxury pool experience.
When creating your backyard oasis, it is important to design your custom pool with the natural flow of the exterior landscape in mind. In the past, pool construction usually offered you a round or rectangle design. This is no longer the case. Now, you can create a luxury custom swimming pool which, instead of sticking out like a sore thumb, adds to any type of backyard ambiance you wish to create at your home by designing with the big picture in mind.
If relaxation is on your mind, then adding a custom designed spa to your swimming pool is a definite upgrade to consider. Just like swimming pool design, these spas are no longer a “one-size-fits-all” product. A professional pool company can create a spa that offers numerous custom features (deep ends, jet positioning, seating, swim spas, steps, lighting, etc.) to personalize your spa experience.
Any custom pool design which enhances the reflective value of the water also enhances the luxury pool experience. A popular pool design with many of our customers here in Bluffton and Hilton Head Island is the infinity edge pool. When you combine an infinity edge pool with a design which flows with the exterior landscape – especially the amazing natural beauty of coastal South Carolina – then you give the homeowner a beautiful backyard paradise.
Does the sound of cascading water and a crackling fire make you want to kick up your feet and enjoy a cold beverage on a beautiful summer evening? Why not make sure you can have that experience every night? One of the top trends in custom luxury pool design involves the inclusion waterfalls, fountains and one or more fire elements both inside and outside of the pool. A beautifully-designed waterfall effect can also filter and purify the water in your pool and spa.
So much of what makes your custom pool design a luxury pool experience involves how we design around visual features. Lighting design – especially custom-designed LED lighting – is high on the list of must-have swimming pool features. Besides visual beauty, LED lighting is energy efficient and can be easily included in a pool remodel or pool renovation.
If you are going to take the time and spend the money adding many of the features of a custom designed pool we list above, then don’t forget about the area surrounding your beautifully-designed pool. Both the landscaping and hardscaping of your backyard should fit seamlessly with your luxury pool design. While the focal point of your outdoor oasis should be your pool, the surrounding hardscape and landscape elements should magnify the beauty that custom pool experience.
