In a Palm Springs backyard, the pool is often the centrepiece. Getting its shape, placement and surroundings right shapes the entire space.
Shape follows the architecture
A clean, geometric pool suits modern desert homes, while softer forms can complement more organic landscapes. The pool should echo the lines of the house, not compete with them.
Design the space around the water
A pool is only as good as the terrace, shade and seating around it. Lounge zones, a dining area and shade structures are what turn a pool into a place to spend the whole day.
