Out of the blue

Clifftop sites are magical locations for swimming pools. The blue of the ocean and sky reflected in the pool colour can create a seamless visual cohesion.

For this project by Mayfair Pools, a Mayfair Steel Blue interior was chosen to enhance this connection.

Richard Rowley of Mayfair Pools says the design of the five-sided pool was further influenced by the shape of the property and an existing retaining wall.

"The angled sides provide a modern, geometric look, which complements the contemporary architecture of the house," he says. "Flamed granite coping pavers and tiles reinforce the pool's streamlined appearance."

To extend the swimming season, the pool is heated by a heat pump. The pool also features an ozone water treatment system. And halogen in-pool lighting makes it ideal for swimming and entertaining on balmy summer nights.

Mayfair Pools specialises in custom-built fibreglass pools that can be made to any size and shape, to fit virtually any site. The company, which has been in business for more than 35 years, has a network of agents throughout the country.
