Description
This indoor pool was a creative and complex project. A stunning space with a bold contemporary design, the pool room features a rectangular pool and a custom spa. The site had limited access, so it was necessary to get the vessels in place after the foundation was poured and before the construction of the large home. The pool/spa shells had to be protected during the construction. The piping was put in place, and the high-level interior finishes required scaffolding support. The pool sat for a year during the construction. The interior finishes of the pool were installed during the winter for a summer turnover to the owner—the pool needed to be operating during this time.
The customer did not want any apparatus protruding from the pool. We installed a Riverflow Current System in the shallow end which the owners use for exercise, and enjoy floating around the pool with the current. The homeowners were so enchanted with the Lightstreams waterline tile that they also had it installed behind the bar and other recessed vertical surfaces in the hallway.
This interior pool also features a sauna, steamroom, shower and dressing area and a Nano wall for opening the area up when it is nice outside. The workout rooms have full-wall windows overlooking the pool, and the master bedroom features a circular stairway leading directly to the pool area. Automated controls make operating the pool and spa easy. Lighting in the stairs and ceilings, porcelain floor tile and contemporary fixtures work together to create a space that is lavish and sublime.
