“Natural setting swimming pool designs make you feel like you are on a vacation every day of the year”
A natural setting swimming pool design is custom swimming pool design that employs techniques to make the swimming pool look as much like a natural spring as possible. Natural setting designs employ natural rock waterfalls, vanishing edge, hillside construction, and swimming pool landscape techniques to make the pool appear as a natural fixture to your backyard environment. Most of our natural setting swimming pools have negative edges, stepping stones surrounding the pool, tumbled flagstones used throughout, waterfalls, multi-level decks, and integrated draining planters surrounding the pool. These natural pools we create are not to be confused with natural swimming pools, which use gravel stone and clay in place of gunite and aquatic plants in place of chemicals.
