Equilibrium Pools Project 2

The unique shape of this pool, which incorporates steps and a shallow swimming area, was specifically created to accommodate the needs of the homeowners’ young family. The pool features an extra-deep end, which is perfect for diving, while the generous poolside space within the frameless-glass fencing ensures safety is prioritised without compromising on functionality or style.

The combination of rich ‘Belgium Blue’ limestone surrounds, glass mosaic Bisazza tiles at the waterline, and a Designerite Islands Beadcrete pool surface in ‘Venezia’ results in a dynamic appearance that is visually striking. The inclusion of lush green landscaping and multiple poolside seating arrangements further enhances the design, creating an ideal space for outdoor living and entertaining.

The team at Equilibrium Pools took a collaborative approach to the project, working closely with Peter Nixon of Paradisus Garden Design to achieve a seamless outcome. In particular, the careful selection of foliage, including sweet viburnum, alcantarea imperialis ‘rubra’, blue chalksticks and variegated cup of gold vine, ensured that the selected plant life would perfectly complement the outdoor styling, while also providing a vibrant visual backdrop along the property’s boundary.
