Tipton Pool Builders talk about trends for 2017 pool owners

Fashion comes and goes and trends for swimming pools change over the years as well. For instance, remember the old-fashioned wooden barrel designed hot tubs? They are now being brought back because of nostalgia. If you’re wondering what trends for 2017 pool owners are on the horizon, talk with the swimming pool builders from Tipton Pools in Knoxville, Tennessee for ideas.

Use these trends as idea starters for your 2017 pool project but put your own spin on them to make your pool as unique as your family.

Trends for 2017 pool owners

  1. A natural pool. These are eco- and environmentally-friendly and don’t need chemicals to keep the water clean. A natural pool uses an eco-system of plant life to keep water clean. The beauty of a natural pool is that it can be constructed in almost any form. Add a liner and you have an eco friendly swimming pool. A natural pool may cost less to construct and maintain than other pools. You will need to construct an adjacent pool area to house the plants that keep the water clean.
  2. A vanishing edge, infinity pool. These dramatic pools look as though they have three sides and the fourth side vanishes into the horizon. This design makes it appear that the water is cascading off into space. If you have a scenic view, this pool style enhances the aesthetic beauty of your backyard.
  3. A lap pool. You don’t need to devote the entire backyard to the swimming pool. If you want a pool, but still want to keep your yard space, consider a lap pool. These pools are space- and money-saving structures.
  4. A beach entry pool is ideal if you have the space. A beach entry eliminates the need to climb up a ladder or steps to get in a pool and this is ideal for those with mobility issues. A beach entry pool has a shallow end that gradually slopes to deeper water.

Accessories can elevate the look and feel of even the smallest or most basic of pool designs. Ask us about adding a hot tub or spa, sun shelves or a diving board. Don’t forget to consider the deck and the outdoor living space that surrounds the pool as you will spend as much, if not more, time around the pool than you do in the water.
