Beautiful today.
Considered for tomorrow.
Water changes every colour it touches. Choose materials together, in real daylight, with wet samples as well as dry ones.
Travertine
& limestone
Warm, quiet stone makes the transition from house to water feel natural. Finish, porosity and the actual stone source matter as much as colour.
Ask about: wet slip resistance, heat underfoot, sealing, salt exposure and replacement availability. Specify tested exterior products, not appearance alone.
Timber
& shade
A slatted pergola creates shifting light without turning the garden into an enclosed room. Timber tones soften the mineral palette.
Ask about: durability class, fixings near treated pool water, coating cycles and whether you prefer natural weathering or retained colour. Shade patterns should be checked seasonally.
Waterline
& vessel
Petrol-blue and muted green finishes can create depth without the visual weight of a black pool. Water depth, sky and lighting all affect the result.
Ask about: grout, cleaning access, chemical compatibility, underwater lighting and a sample viewed beneath water. Screen colours are not a finish specification.
Bronze tones
& soft layers
Dark metal details keep the architecture precise. Outdoor upholstery and layered foliage make it comfortable.
Ask about: corrosion suitability, galvanic separation, cushion drainage and storage. Choose planting around root behaviour, leaf litter and local water needs.
