The beauty of freeform pools is that your options are endless. From kidney shape to irregular they feature curves, flowing lines, and defined edges and actually create space in a backyard. Unlike rectangular or round pools, a free-form swimming pool can adapt to any area. In essence, it provides an organic look which blends seamlessly into the landscape as if it has always been there.

Countless options

Some people prefer the classic kidney shape pool whereas others prefer to choose from options enabling them to achieve a look that is natural and casual, in both style and shape. The curves, lines, and defining edges are what gives the pool its modern look.

Beauty or function?

The advantage of a free-form swimming pool is that it enhances your backyard while giving you a pool that the whole family can enjoy. There are several factors to consider before deciding on its shape. For example, if you want to swim and exercise in your pool then you might want to choose a shape that is fuller and rounder with flowing lines.

There are plenty of accessories to enhance the look and functionality of a freeform pool such as a beach entry (perfect for children), tanning shelves, and in-pool tables and furniture. When it comes to a freeform pool, the only limit might be your imagination.
