This contemporary swimming
pool in Jumeirah Golf Estates
is to dive for
was a great project to work on,”
enthuses David Russell, general
manager at Pools by Design “The
“This
client wanted a contemporary
swimming pool that is big enough to swim
laps in, with a garden that included plenty of
entertaining and relaxing areas.”
The original outdoor space was narrow, with
a number of different levels, so the pool deck
level provided the starting point. It was raised
to create a seamless transition from the terrace,
which leads from the villa to the pool, with the
golf course views beyond.
David and his client worked together on a
pool design featuring clean lines, white tiles
and infinity edges for a fresh, on-trend look.
“People are moving away from traditional blue
tile finishes and being more adventurous in
their choice,” David says. “White is very popular
and can give a stunning effect, but we also have
some amazing pearlescent tiles that provide a
very cool and funky finish.”
