Present-day pool design has become somewhat of a fine art. Once upon a time, all backyard pools seemed to be the same, but that’s no longer the case. Today’s swimming pools in Toronto incorporate a variety of materials and design techniques to make each creation unique. If you’re considering building a pool, here are some helpful ideas based on some of this year’s most popular pool and patio design trends.
Water Highlights
Water features come in a variety of styles, including waterfalls, fountains, spillways, etc.
Infinity Edge
The most recent rage in pool configuration is the infinity edge, which delivers the visual impact of water stretching out to the skyline.
Light It Up
One straightforward approach to include a feeling of a pool configuration is to consolidate fascinating lighting. This should be possible all through the landscaping and on the inside of pools and spas.
Toning it Down
While some are drawn to expansive poolscape designs, others opt for a contemporary minimalist aesthetic. Consider creating a poolscape that blends the timeless elegance of a classic pool with a modern twist.
Multiple Rises
Retaining dividers can help control despoliation, turn a sloped landscape into a usable space, and, in the case of poolscape design, construct multi-level patios for seating, gardens, dining areas, water features, and more.
Broadened Open-air Living Space
Modern poolscape configuration has a tendency to grow past the water’s edge and into broadened open-air living space, which is regularly designed and enhanced to resemble an outdoor interpretation of an indoor space.
Fancy Edge
There was a time when your choices were limited to bricks, tiles, or bullnose coping. Remember, those options are still in trend. However, nowadays, innovative designs and alternative edging materials are becoming increasingly popular.
Mix It Up
Eclectic plans are well-known for blending an assortment of materials and styles together. This can include different styles of pavers, tiles, and natural stone. Wood-grained porcelain pavers also incorporate the look of natural wood into the design.
One with Nature
People tend to choose a design that appears to be seamlessly integrated with nature. This can be achieved by incorporating natural stone or concrete pavers that mimic the look and feel of real stone. There are several additional advantages to choosing pavers over natural stone, including reduced material costs, decreased installation costs, and non-slip surfacing.
Eco-Friendly
Eco-friendly designs are one of the fastest-growing trends in outdoor living. With a pool design, this can be achieved by using a geothermal or solar-powered heater, as well as permeable paver decking. Permeable pavers allow rainwater to filter through the joints instead of running off into ditches or pits. A permeable system can even be designed to harvest and recycle rainwater.
Fire Highlights
There’s simply something ethereal about bringing together the components of flame and water that interests many individuals on a profound level. Fireplaces, fire pits, and fire bowls make a phenomenal addition to a poolscape, both from visual and practical viewpoints. A fire feature provides a way to enjoy your pool deck during months when it’s too cold to swim, even in winter.
