Upon reflection
With its infinity edge, this clifftop pool by Mayfair Pools appears to merge with the inlet beyond
Clifftop gardens are invariably part of a much wider landscape one that needs to be taken into account when planning a new pool.
For this project by Mayfair Pools, it made sense to connect the pool visually to the picturesque inlet in the distance. Director Richard Rowley says an infinity edge at the end of the pool was designed to lead the eye out to the view beyond.
"This design takes advantage of the natural contours of the clifftop site," he says. "The colour of the pool interior, Mayfair Beach, was also chosen to reflect the pale hue of the water in the distance."
Other features of the pool include a flamed granite bullnose edge, interior lighting, and a hide-away pool cover. Rowley says a standard above-ground cover would have impeded the flow around the pool and would have been visually intrusive.
Mayfair Pools specialises in custom-built fibreglass pools that can be made to any size and shape, to fit virtually any site. The company has been in business for more than 35 years, and has a network of agents throughout the country.
