This elegant pool offers plenty of space for the family to enjoy the water, entertain and relax. The deep end offers a Badu swim jet system and the middle of the pool presents an underwater speaker system and waterfall with kids’ play area. But the most inspiring aspect is the inclusion of the glass-encased spa. Elevated over the cabana end of the pool, it provides a separate space for relaxation, allowing the family to sit and overlook the full length of the pool and landscaped backyard. It is fully integrated into the form and function of the pool and the surrounding entertainment spaces. A multi-layered step area introduces you into the pool and provides the family with a safe area for kids to sit while the parents relax in the spa. The clients were delivered a high-quality pool, reflected in all materials and finishes used, including natural stone cladding applied to the water feature wall and glass mosaic tiles – light blue in the pool and metallic charcoal on the waterline and in the spa’s interior. Silver ash travertine pavers around the pool blend into the cabana area to provide a seamless transition between spaces. Five pedestal steps across the water feature ledge create a link across the spillout and have been fully tiled to match the pool. They also create a toddler-safe shallow area. The pool is fully automated, ensuring maximum usage without time spent on maintenance. The pool also boasts an underwater speaker system using a Sonos audio controller, so the music you hear in the house and cabana can be heard simultaneously underwater. Multi-coloured pool and spa lights are synchronised with the multi-coloured LED water feature to provide an amazing night scene with shimmering water spilling over the glass-encased spa. The final result is an enticing and practical pool that embodies the technical resolve and stylish aesthetics of a pool space that Freestyle Pools strives to deliver.
