A Natural Pool Expands Your Circle of Friends

“Ever since we put the Natural Pool in, our adult children visit us and bring along girlfriends and co-workers to swim. Even our closest neighbors are happy to cool off in our pool from time to time. The pool is not only beautiful to look at and swim in, it has helped us make new acquaintances and enlarge our circle of friends,” says a married couple, who are the proud owners of a Natural Pool. The elongated swimming area extends the middle axis of the house, which points due south. The regeneration area, filled with aquatic plants, opens up on both sides. The light colored granite stone perimeter creates a strong geometric impact and enhances the illusion of depth. The Natural Pool rises as a whole out of the low-grade slope and is held in place by a slightly curved concrete wall vis-à-vis the steeper terrain. At the same time the wall delineates a new level of the lawn in an area of the garden that had previously been underused. Here, there is plenty of space for hours of sunbathing.
