Swimming Pool Design

Who doesn’t love a swimming pool?

One would be hard-pressed to find

someone who had never enjoyed

the pleasures derived from relaxing

either in or beside a pool. Pool

designers are experts in calculating

the feasibility of plans, models, and

construction of projects

commissioned by their clients.

These professionals have a wide

variety of categories in which to

work-from backyard pool structures

to million-dollar vanishing-edge designs. 

 

What Is Swimming Pool Design?

 

Swimming is a major hobby and

recreational sport for many individuals.

Swimming pool design refers to the

design and creation of the different

types of swimming pools and their

accessories.

 

Although they may seem like something of a modern invention, swimming pools and similar manmade bodies of water are actually ancient art forms. Ancient civilizations, for example, created buildings with pools of water to be used as public bathhouses. Today, it is not uncommon to find all different styles of swimming pools – from simple to ornate – in backyards across the world.

There are several different types of swimming pools. Traditional pools can either be installed above the ground or sunk into the ground. Because of their location, the designs of many above-ground swimming pools are somewhat limited, and these generally only come in a few different shapes and depths. Designers typically have more leeway when designing below-ground swimming pools, however. For instance, below-ground pools can often be made in nearly any shape, with varying depths.

Individuals also have the option of choosing from a traditional swimming pool design and a natural swimming pool design. Natural swimming pools are pools that are made mostly from natural materials, and they are created to mimic the look of a natural body of water, although they also have many of the same amenities as a traditional swimming pool. These pools will often have aquatic vegetation and even fish, for instance, but they will also usually have filtration systems and drains as well.

Work Environment

Simply put, a swimming pool designer designs swimming pools. These types of designers will sometimes create custom swimming pool designs for private clients, like individuals or community centers, and some will create designs for commercial swimming pool manufacturers. During the design process, designers must take into consideration the wants, needs, and budgets of their clients.

A designer will often have to design and draw the visible parts of the pool as well as the non-visible parts of the pool, such as the filtration system and pipes. Most swimming pool designers also have a hand in designing any added swimming pool accessories, such as attached decks, slides, diving boards, and spa systems. When designing a swimming pool, a swimming pool designer must create a pool that is not only functional, but also safe, practical, and aesthetically pleasing, as well as possible.

Safety is a major concern when designing swimming pools. Improperly designed swimming pools can be very dangerous, and designers can possibly be liable for any injuries suffered when swimmers are using their pools. Properly designed swimming pools should include safe entry and exit apparatuses, like diving boards and ladders.

A swimming pool designer must also concentrate on the structural integrity of every swimming pool that he designs. Swimming pools must be designed and built to last, and designers will often need to keep the locations of swimming pools in mind before designing them. In colder areas, they should be able to withstand freezing temperatures, for instance, but they should be built to withstand earthquakes in earthquake zones.
The shape of a swimming pool is also an important aspect of swimming pool design. Generally the most common swimming pool shapes include squares, rectangles, circles, and ovals. Other pools shapes, like kidney shapes and oval shapes, are also quite common. When designing a custom swimming pool, a swimming pool designer must make sure that it is possible and practical to make it a particular shape.

Swimming pool designers will also

usually, determine what a certain

swimming pool should be made

from. Some of the most common

swimming pool materials include

vinyl, fibreglass, and gunite. Metal

rods and bars can also be used for

support and concrete can be used

to make below-ground swimming

pools. Once swimming pool

designers design a swimming pool,

they will also usually oversee the

manufacturing or installation

process.
