The summers in New Zealand can be incredibly hot, and there is nothing better than having a pool in your backyard to take a dip in when the heat is really getting to you. More than that, it provides hours of fun for the kids and having any sort of water feature in your home brings about feelings of calm and serenity.
Once you’ve decided to take the plunge and invest in a pool, you’ll need to think about the type of pool that would be ideal for your home and budget. Our pool builders in Hawkes Bay are here to give you all the latest trends and ideas to consider.
Smaller Pools
There is a common misconception that you need to have a massive backyard in order to have a pool and that pools need to be very large in size. But smaller pools or ‘splash’ pools are becoming more popular. They allow you to use the rest of your garden for entertainment purposes and are much easier to clean and maintain. They are budget-friendly too.
Sports Pools
Are you into your fitness? Then a sports pool may be ideal for you. Sports pools are long, deep rectangular pools that are ideal for swimming laps in. Swimming is fantastic exercise, and having a pool that is specifically designed for swimming will help you improve your fitness and technique. They are also aesthetically pleasing ‒ very sleek and chic.
Anything But Light Blue
A lot of homeowners are tired of the classic light blue pool. Instead, we are seeing a lot more darker hues, such as emeralds, take centre stage and provide something a little more unique than that typical light blue pool.
Funky Pool Lights
Installing funky pool lights is an effective way to turn your pool into a feature at night, making it the ideal area for entertaining and taking a night dip. Pool lights come in a wide variety of shapes and colours, so you can really create your fantasy pool.
Bean-Shaped Pools
Bean-shaped pools were big in the 70s, but they are making a trendy comeback. The shape is organic and quirky and can be great for flowing with the natural landscape around you.
