Looking for backyard landscaping ideas around your swimming pool in Toronto? Rocks, plants and flowers are an obvious choice for those who want to create a landscape that connects them deeply with nature. However, if you are looking for something more intriguing and mystical, try exploring options that allow you to combine fire and water.
Curious? The use of fire for landscaping around backyard swimming pools is gaining much traction around the globe. Although fire and water are elementally different, a well-balanced and well-thought-out landscaping plan can bring them together to create a look that is fiery yet soothing and relaxing yet invigorating.
Make Your Poolside Your Haven Every Day and Every Night
One would argue that getting a swimming pool wired for lighting would be an equally appealing option, the truth is that fire can lend a rustic, raw yet an extremely spirited vibe.
While working on landscaping options with their builders, most people focus on aesthetics that allow them to enjoy their poolside during the day. For most, the argument is that they will not be using the pool as much during the evenings. This may be true, but not swimming at night should not be the reason for you to not explore options that allow you to enjoy the space for activities other than swimming.
You can turn even your indoor swimming pool in Toronto into a great place to lounge with your friends and family by exploring ideas that allow you to integrate fire. A small fire pit or a series of torches can make your poolside appear as a cozy haven where you can host your friends or simply host a family dinner.
You can find a wide range of accessories that can be a great addition to your backyard swimming pool. From torches to propane-fired fixtures, you will find innumerable options that allow a builder to combine fire and water in a way that gives off a mesmerizing look.
