There are statistics that indicate 2013 was a great year for the swimming pool industry. We are rebounding from a knockdown recession and pools are being built at an alarming rate. This trend is expected to continue and 2014 could easily be the year of the swimming pool. The swimming pool isn’t what it used to be, a standard rectangular shape void of creativity. Today’s homeowner wants a custom pool that reflects personality and looks great. As far as pools are concerned, here is what is trending in 2014.
One of the more aesthetically pleasing swimming pool designs is through the use of glass tile. Glass tiles are quickly gaining popularity and there is good reason for this. Glass tiles are harder than ceramic and break less easily. Glass tiles come in a plethora of colors so you can create a unique and likely one-of-a-kind pool.
In the past, hot tubs and swimming pools were separate entities. Today, homeowners are choosing to attach a hot tub to their swimming pool. The modern hot tub is accented with glass tiles and spillover features. It is popular to build the hot tub higher up than the pool so you can have a better view of the pool while lounging in your hot tub. Simply brilliant.
Freeform pools have been popular for quite some time, but these days the geometric shapes are plain out of this world. These geometric pools allow for custom lighting, rock and other features that give it a “wow” factor. With this trend, the sky is really the limit as to how creative you want to get.
