Your Custom Swimming Pool Design - Dreamtime Waters

The variety of options when it comes to designing a custom swimming pool to suit your home is endless. From standard corridor and l-shaped lap pools to infinity pools, multi-tiered pools or even pools carved in the outline of your favorite cartoon character - your only limitation is your imagination.

That said, your wallet is also going to be a substantial constraint on your possibilities, affecting first-off whether you can even afford to install an inground custom pool and the nature of the inground pool design - will it be plain concrete or a more expensive, pre-shaped fiberglass or metal design? If you’re looking at breaking the bank for this, perhaps you should consider an above-ground, collapsible pool until you’re in the financial position to afford the extraordinary swimming pool of your dreams.

A custom swimming pool can be the chance to add a lot of value and character to your home, as well as developing it as a platform for entertaining guests. There are few things as impressive at a pool party as neon-lit fountains or cascading waterfalls for your guests to luxuriate in, or islands to lounge on - so you do need to think about how many people you’d like to be able to accommodate, and the kind of social dynamic you’d like to create. Studies have shown that, at a real pool party, whether the number of people is thirty or a hundred, there are seven people in the pool at any given moment. Keep that in mind.

Still, trying to be a party magnet with an extraordinary swimming pool without thinking about what will make you happy in a space is really just a sure path to ultimate dissatisfaction. Pick a design that you feel represents you, and your interests. Do you like being in lush natural surroundings, or enjoying the aesthetic and intellectual appeal of minimalist postmodern architecture features around your swim area? Sharp lines or curves? Gazebos or thatch huts? What color will be easiest on your eyes when you’re swimming underwater? Do you like chilly dips in winter, or are you going to need a heat pump to make your pool usable when the cold months hit?

Working out exactly what you like and need to relax will make your inground custom swimming pool the element that turns a house into a dream home. By creating a space that represents what please you, you will make a truly extraordinary swimming pool, rather than a meek imitation of the fashion in the latest Ikea catalogue.
