Eclectic Turquoise Pool Design Ideas
Land & Water DesignOur client constructed their new home on five wooded acres in Northern Virginia, and they requested our firm to help them design the ultimate backyard retreat complete with custom natural look pool as the main focal point. The pool was designed into an existing hillside, adding natural boulders and multiple waterfalls, raised spa. Next to the spa is a raised natural wood burning fire pit for those cool evenings or just a fun place for the kids to roast marshmallows.
The extensive Techo-bloc Inca paver pool deck, a large custom pool house complete with bar, kitchen/grill area, lounge area with 60" flat screen TV, full audio throughout the pool house & pool area with a full bath to complete the pool area.
For the back of the house, we included a custom composite waterproof deck with lounge area below, recessed lighting, ceiling fans & small outdoor grille area make this space a great place to hangout. For the man of the house, an avid golfer, a large Southwest synthetic putting green (2000 s.f.) with bunker and tee boxes keeps him on top of his game. A kids playhouse, connecting flagstone walks throughout, extensive non-deer appealing landscaping, outdoor lighting, and full irrigation fulfilled all of the client's design parameters.

Home & Garden Design, Atlanta - Danna Cain, ASLAA rectangular pool was the only shape that would fit this long lot and also all zoning restrictions in the City of Atlanta. We presented the client with various options for the location of the spa and how the patio & deck could make the transition from both the upper level and basement level of the home.

Betz Pools LimitedTo help the pool look balanced in the room and to provide access to the patio doors and underwater bench, a stepping-stone path was created using sandblasted Eramosa flagstone. The stepping-stones not only add another texture to the room, but also look more interesting than a typical perimeter walkway.
