Coming home after a long day - for many people there is nothing better. Time for relaxation and precious moments with the family take centre stage. This time becomes even more special when it can be spent in your own garden. With this project, we have made exactly that possible: a unique bathing oasis that brings the cosy feeling outside.
Sport and relaxation in the natural pool with counter-current system
Even from the upper garden level, the natural pool attracts everyone's attention with its crystal-clear water. The modern PP pool impresses with its high-quality and durable materials. It is delivered prefabricated with all personalised requirements, which significantly reduces the construction time. At the same time, the water remains clear thanks to the innovative Living Pool Technology clean and clear, without any chemical additives.
Another highlight is the integrated counter-current system, which enables personalised swimming training directly in your own garden. The intensity of the resistance can be conveniently controlled via app. After training, the natural pool still offers plenty of space for relaxed swimming and exuberant play.
Elegant connection of the garden levels
Where previously a narrow staircase connected the two garden levels, a stylish terracing now ensures a harmonious design. A natural slope may seem challenging at first glance, but it also has advantages: Two garden levels already exist and help to create more structure in the outdoor space. They just need to be skilfully linked together.
A centrally positioned wooden staircase creates a generous sense of openness and elegantly leads to the lower level. The lush planting loosens up the clear, modern structures and emphasises the homely atmosphere. Long wooden benches on each side of the staircase invite you to linger - as comfortable seating or lounging areas.
Creating more usable space with wood
The lower garden area features a spacious wooden deck that is seamlessly integrated into the terracing. The material creates a cosy ambience and gives the open-air living room a warm feel. The deck also maximises the usable area, providing ample space for garden furniture.
There is a comfortable lounge right next to the natural pool, which invites you to spend relaxing hours by the water. To ensure that even hot summer days remain pleasant, well-designed shade providers offer protection: in addition to the parasols, an impressive ironwood tree provides pleasant shade. Its striking silhouette forms a central eye-catcher, while other solitary trees create interesting visual axes.
Break up modern structures with plants
A well thought-out choice of plants enhances the harmonious effect of the pool oasis. It brings lightness to the modern design and gives the natural pool a natural setting. The panicle hydrangeas are particularly eye-catching, with their magnificent flowers providing a contrasting accent to the deep blue water.
In addition, the discreet feather bristle grass with its beige tones and gentle movements creates flowing transitions between the garden areas. The silver shrub complements the plant composition with its blue panicles of flowers, echoing the colour of the natural pool.
The result of this project is a perfect combination of aesthetics, functionality and well-being. The stylish terracing harmoniously connects the various garden areas, while the natural pool becomes the central highlight. The skilful planting creates a unique bathing paradise that invites you to linger and enjoy - whether for relaxing afternoons in the shade or active hours in the water.
