Pool Design Ideas with a Water Feature
The residence was built in the Art Deco era, so all parties wanted to ensure that the pool integrated well with the residence and looked like it and the surrounding landscape had been there as long as the home. Image by Dave Kulesza

This project in Colleyville is awesome for daytime & night time use. The pool has two sets of triple rain falls that give the pool a very unique contemporary feel. The fire bowl helps accent it in the evening along with the cam lights in the cabana. There is a nice kitchen inside the cabana featuring a round bar area along with their Big Green Egg and refrigerator. The cabana matches the architecture on the house with 12" x 12" cedar posts and a steep hip roof. The patio was capped with Subway Travertine. There is also an arbor on the raised patio opposite the cabana. Project designed by Mike Farley.
The homeowner of this traditional home requested a traditional pool and spa with a resort-like style and finishes. AquaTerra was able to create this wonderful outdoor environment with all they could have asked for.
While the pool and spa may be simple on the surface, extensive planning went into this environment to incorporate the intricate deck pattern. During site layout and during construction, extreme attention to detail was required to make sure nothing compromised the precise deck layout.
The pool is 42'x19' and includes a custom water feature wall, glass waterline tile and a fully tiled lounge with bubblers. The separate spa is fully glass tiled and is designed to be a water feature with custom spillways when not in use. LED lighting is used in both the pool and spa to create dramatic lighting that can be enjoyed at night.
The pool/spa deck is made of 2'x2' travertine stones, four to a square, creating a 4'x4' grid that is rotated 45 degrees in relation to the pool. In between all of the stones is synthetic turf that ties into the synthetic turf putting green that is adjacent to the deck. Underneath all of this decking and turf is a concrete sub-deck to support and drain the entire system.
Finishes and details that increase the aesthetic appeal for project include:
-All glass tile spa and spa basin
-Travertine deck
-Tiled sun lounge with bubblers
-Custom water feature wall
-LED lighting
-Synthetic turf
This traditional pool and all the intricate details make it a perfect environment for the homeowners to live, relax and play!
