Here are just a few idea starters to help your vision evolve into your project plan:

• Shape: You can choose any shape you can imagine with a gunite pool or spa. Traditional rectangle, completely free-form, integrated spas, waterfalls, fountains, decorative ponds…and more.

• Spa: Add a spa for the ultimate in mind and body relaxation.  Soothe mind and body with
  the liquid heat that melts tension away.

• Water Features: For added beauty and enjoyment, consider a fountain, deck jets, waterfalls, laminars or other exciting water features.  Whether simple or sensational, water features is not only beautiful, it helps to diminish traffic and neighborhood noises, enhancing the overall sensory experience.

• Lighting: Nighttime can be the best time with today’s color-changing underwater lighting systems. Select a color for the evening or scroll through the entire spectrum of colors. New energy-efficient LED systems provide a variety of orchestrated light shows from slow and romantic to fast and fantastic. 

• Beach Entry: Create a “shoreline” effect with a beach or zero-depth entry as an intriguing and artistic alternative to steps.

• Vanishing Edge: A vanishing edge creates a dramatic and mesmerizing illusion—the pool edge virtually disappears as water cascades over a back edge to create a gentle waterfall.

• Rock Features: For added visual appeal, consider including natural elements, such as rock features—from stonework in walls to rocks and boulders strategically placed for drama in your overall landscape.

• Decking: Decking options for today’s pools are almost endless. Choices are available to match and complement the design and colors of your home, landscape, and other outdoor features.
