The days of kidney shaped pools with predictable pool design aesthetics are gone. Pool designs have taken more of an artistic element within your backyard. For small backyards seeking luxurious pools, this is great news. Here we offer a few insightful tips for you to consider when planning your pool project.

Simplicity and Elegance

The goal of any pool is to become an extension of your home and when having a pool design specifically for a small backyard, that can become easier, and simpler, to accomplish. A simple rectangular pool can accomplish a lot by enhancing it with the surrounding landscape and outdoor living elements such as an outdoor fire feature and elegant patio furniture.

Focus on Landscaping

When working with a small pool design, it helps to focus on landscaping to enhance it. With any pool shape, perimeter landscaping can easily elevate it.

Add Water Features

It’s rare that you can ever go wrong when choosing a water feature for your pool. However, in the case of a small swimming pool, your options may be limited depending on the size of the pool or it might not be within your budget. Utilizing a decorative scupper can provide you with just the right ambiance and when the pool is not in use, it can enhance the decorative aspect of the pool.
