Description
What is the point of a dramatic desert view without a dramatic desert pool? This project dubbed "Mountain Allure" takes the concept of view to a whole new level. The entire pools is elevated eight feet out of the ground with the vanisihing edge basin below. The basin contains led bubblers for a dramatic night effect fpr those in the lower yard. . Fire columns fland the front and the back of the pool with an additional fire pit next to the view platform. The glass safety fencing provides and unobtrivsive yet modern look. The vantage point from the baja step is breathtakeing with room enough for two large lounger s to one can enjoy the Arizona ambiance. Two small sheer decents keep the feeling of tranquility in this pool the is about as close to heaven on earth as you will ever get.
This pool was somewhat complicated. Not only is it eight feet from grade but it had to be wired and leveled perfectly. The construction manager had to go through painstaking measures to insure this gometric pool was perfect; building what can be best described as an eight foot "goal post" to keep all measurements and phases in check.
