As we look at 2024, the world of swimming pool design is expanding with new, innovative concepts that promise to elevate leisure and luxury in backyards around the world. From the aesthetic delights of colour-changing finishes to the practical draw of eco-friendly features, here’s what you can expect from the best pools this year.
Pool Finishes That Change the Colour of Water
Imagine a pool that reflects the vivid hues of a sunset or the deep, unfathomable blues of the ocean. Pool water’s appearance and colour can shift naturally due to a number of factors. The angle of sunlight at different times of the day can vary how the water appears, while adjacent landscaping might produce shadows that alter its colour.
In 2024, expect a revolution in pool finishes that allow for significant shifts in the colours of water, ranging from brilliant, bold blues accomplished fibreglass pools or fully tiled concrete pool options to translucent, crystalline appearances from pale blue or white tones achieved with glass beads and custom tiles. Dynamic Pool Design’s team can incorporate a range of materials that reflect and refract light in a variety of ways, allowing for rapid customisation of your pool’s look.
Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Designs
In 2024, sustainability will continue to influence pool design, with an emphasis on environmentally friendly and energy-efficient solutions from construction to daily use. During the planning and construction phases, it is critical to use eco-friendly, recycled, or locally obtained materials. This strategy goes beyond the pool to incorporate environmentally friendly options for surrounding fencing and furniture.
Energy-efficient lighting, variable speed pool pump solutions, and improved cleaning and filtering systems will save energy and chemical consumption. The Dolphin Robot, the world-first climate-care certified robotic pool cleaner, can save up to 83% more energy than older pool cleaning models. As a result, you’ll have a cleaner, purer pool thanks to a system that is softer on both your wallet and the environment.
These solutions not only promote environmental sustainability but also keep the luxury of pool ownership guilt-free by delivering a clean and delightful swimming experience that is consistent with eco-friendly principles.
Shallow Ledges
Tanning ledges, sometimes known as sun shelves, tanning ledges, baja shelves or shallow benches, are becoming increasingly popular. These shallow, flat sections allow for reclining in the water without completely sinking, making them ideal for sunbathers, small children, and those who wish to dip their toes in. As adaptability grows in popularity, shallow benches are becoming an essential component in both family and luxury pools; add shallow adaptable pool lounge furniture and umbrellas to enhance the pool lounging experience.
Multiple Lighting Features
Enhance your pool with a range of lighting options: Underwater LED lights illuminate the entire pool with app-controlled or switch controls provide customisable entertainment. In-ground and eco-friendly solar lights highlight distinctive features, while classic exterior options accommodate any design or budget.
Just because the sun goes down does not mean the fun has to end—external pool area lighting improves visibility both within and outside of the water, making the surroundings more appealing and ideal for late-night splashes.
Simplicity in Design
While intricate layouts have their place, there is an increasing trend towards simpler swimming pool designs. Modern luxury swimming pool design is defined by clean lines, minimalistic layouts, and uncluttered spaces, which emphasise quality and style without being overly complicated. This solution is not only visually appealing, but it also simplifies maintenance—a win-win for busy households.
Non-Standard Depths
Moving away from the usual deep-end and shallow-end configurations, 2024 will see more pools with non-standard depths. Whether for safety, fitness, or play, changing depths accommodate a variety of requirements and activities, making the pool more accessible and enjoyable for all.
Fire and Water Features
These features, which combine the inherent beauty of fire and water, are expected to become increasingly popular in contemporary swimming pool designs. Fire bowls, fire pits, or integrated fireplaces near the water around patios and decks not only give warmth and light but also create a visually appealing focal point that pulls the eye and enhances the entire pool area.
Dive into the Future
As we look at the future of pool design, it’s clear that the emphasis is changing towards designing surroundings that are both environmentally conscious and artistically appealing. These developments not only promise more beauty and functionality but also seek to lessen the environmental impact of pool ownership.
