New Braunfels Pool Builders are known for their vast selection of pools from custom designed architectural pools, simple lap pools to above ground pools. The architectural pool, typically constructed with concrete, is carefully designed to compliment the house with a smooth and subtle transition to the nearby pool. This transitional space between the pool and the house can be comprised of a pool deck and sometimes a terrace. You will also be able to select from different types of paving materials. Additional architectural designs are the edge of the pool’s height. Some pools are designed flush with the surrounding landscape to easily enter the pool. Other options are to raise the pools edge. Does your home have rounded or sharp corners? By paying close attention to details, even a small pool can make a strong architectural statement in the landscape. To create an eye-catching effect, you will want to consider a bold and contrast color. With an architectural design, your options are only limited by your imagination. New Braunfels Pool Builders also offer a naturalistic pool. With a creative design, your landscape can be further beautified by the careful integration of a naturalistic pool. These designs are typically for sloping land where the water will circulate and flow freely mimicking a small stream or small waterfall. The pool is surrounding by foliage of various types and sizes to bring a tranquil atmosphere. In addition to the foliage, many times boulders are used. In many parts of New Braunfels natural woodland settings of foliage, boulders, stepping stones, ground cover are present and make the incorporation of a naturalistic pool possible.
