Exploring the Fabulous World of In-Ground Pool Design In-ground pools provide many options in design, style, theme, shape, depth, and colour. This is mainly because of their structure and how they are built. Since the foundation and walls of an in-ground swimming pool are made of concrete, odd and creative shapes can be designed. Walls and flooring can be covered with tile, paint, or other materials to creative wonderful colour combinations and artistry. Many accessories can be added to enhance the area with ease.
Pool Shapes You just dig the ground out in the preferred shape and start pouring the concrete. However, the walls are a different story, but a professional swimming pool builder can handle everything for you. Nevertheless, once the pool walls are built; the artistic process can begin. Beautiful shapes have been developed in the pooldesign process, such as curved areas that branch out from the squared zone, hexagonal shapes, double-circle designs, and even t-shaped formations. In addition to shapes, concrete in-ground swimming pools can also have multi-level designs. In fact, a lot of pools utilize this concept to create beautiful waterfalls from one height to the next.
The Walls and Floor Aside from shapes, in-ground pools offer colour and design creativity within the walls and floor. Concrete can easily be painted with epoxy paint for long lasting results or several colours can be intertwined to enhance appeal under the water’s surface.
Tile is another big option that offers fabulous design through individual tile installation. Imagine the colour combinations with tile. You can even create images out of various coloured tiles. You may have noticed a lot of in-ground pools that have tile in various areas that creates lines or circles. This is a fairly common design, but you can do a lot more with tile if you desire. Aside from paint and tile, there are other options that enhance the beauty of the pool itself. Many pool builders offer stone surfaces and other types of surfaces that can be attached to the concrete areas. A lot of them have stone floors or surfaces with various speckles. The stone surfaces are not rough, but are contoured due to tiny stone pieces. However, they make slipping less existent and provide a grip on the pool floor. The speckled surfaces contain things like marble pieces, colored glass, colored stone chips, sparkling metals, and more that are sealed under the surface of the material they get used in.
Pool Additions Since concrete swimming pools are flexible in style, you can create beautiful entrances into the pool itself with stairs and steps that are creatively shaped, while also adding statues and other dĂŠcor to the space. Concrete seating is a nice addition inside and outside the pool, and can be painted or tiled to enhance appeal. And then there is the walking surface around the pool. You can paint it in fashionable colours of design or you can surface it with a speckled material to add value and beauty.
