As you move onto the pool deck made of sand finished colored concrete, sawcut and stained in a diamond pattern the formal rectangular pool and fountain become the focus. The pool deck has smooth stucco benches on four sides and symmetrical side pop-out lounge and table areas for poolside relaxation and fun. The pool has poured-in-place colored concrete coping and a runnel from the spa. Hand painted porcelain tile lines the waterline and white Pebble-Sheen plaster finishes the pool. Three colored L.E.D. pool lights give the owner hundreds of colors to choose from. Designing beautifully shaped steps in pools is one of my passion. Beautifully shaped step cast wonderful shadow patterns and give elegance to the design. Ahead is a raised spa with a Mexican Tile facade, Terra-cotta coping and our signature 'Tile Ledge' detail. Hand-painted tile also lines the waterline and raised water feature wall. A 'Sheer Decent' waterfall sheets into the spa, giving the illusion that the fountain is part of the spas re-circulation. The spa is also lit with colored L.E.D. lights. (The spa and fountain are completely separate systems, both filtered and lit.) The focal point, the Grand Fountain with Grand Effects Fire Bowls are the yards feature. Every tier of the fountain has a different, but complimentary hand-painted Mexican and/or porcelain tile.
