Even though there are only two weeks left of summer break, Houston still has a few months remaining of pool weather. In this unbearable heat, a pool is an ideal part of every Texan’s home. Below are photos from a custom pool that we designed and built to fit this client’s spacious backyard.
The pool itself is 34 x 18 feet. Surrounding the pool are silver travertine pavers that match the stone on the backyard patio. The coping is square nosed, which is consistent with the clean lines of the modern home. The heated spa is elevated so there can be a waterfall into the pool, creating a luxurious look. Ipe wood borders the pool deck. This stained wood creates a beautiful contrast against the pool deck and green grass. Lastly and my favorite feature is the shallow bench inside the pool, designed at a specific depth for the clients’ dogs to lay down in the water.
