Indoor pools are a delight! They allow you the joy of a relaxing swim, regardless of the weather. There are several benefits of having an indoor pool:
- You do not have to worry about rain, wind or too much sunlight. The temperature is controlled and you can enjoy your swim in any weather.
- You can enjoy your privacy in an indoor pool. You can be away from prying eyes and nosy parkers and swim in the peaceful ambiance of your indoors.
- Maintenance is indeed important for an indoor pool, but it is not as difficult as an outdoor pool. You do not have to worry about leaves and debris floating in the water.
The most interesting aspect of an indoor pool is that it can function as an extension of your home. Let’s take a look at some extremely creative swimming pool designs that will leave you craving for an indoor pool that is as pretty, serene, and mesmerizing as these pools, for your home.
Here’s a list of the top 3 mesmerizing indoor pools from across the world:
Indoor/Outdoor Mid-Century Pool at Loewy House
This beautiful indoor/outdoor swimming pool was designed by Albert Frey in 1946. He was commissioned by the famous industrial designer Raymond Loewy, who is known for his designs for the Greyhound bus, Studebaker Avanti, and Shell gas logo. Loewy asked Frey to build him a modest bachelor pad and instead of using traditional and contemporary designs, Frey let the surrounding wilderness of the desert guide him. The living room is the only place where the desert is revealed to the guests and there in the middle of the room is this pool that looks like an oasis in the natural element of the desert.
Hearst Castle’s Roman Indoor Pool
The Roman Pool at Hearst Castle will leave you lingering in its beauty and tranquility. This swimming pool was designed by architect Julia Morgan for newspaper honcho Henry Randolph Hearst between 1919 and 1947. Today the Hearst Castle is a California State Historical Monument and a national historic landmark. The most stunning aspect of this pool is its gold-infused blue glass mosaic tiles that run from the floor to the ceiling. Quite similar to a Roman bath, it also has eight copies of Greek and Roman statues.
The Longest Pool
Taking inspiration from Albert Frey’s indoor-outdoor pool for Raymond Loewy, an all-women firm called Design4Corners created this exquisite pool in San Diego that beautifully connects the indoors and outdoors. This pool is linear and ideal for lap swimmers. The pool runs through the entire length – indoors and outdoors. While the outdoors serve as a pool, in the indoors, the walls of the pool serve as a bar counter.
