Give Your Atlanta Pool Enclosure a Designer’s Touch
Pool enclosures should be fun and engaging places to casually relax or have a small dinner party in your Atlanta backyard. A well-constructed pool enclosure always looks beautiful on the outside. It’s likely that you’ll want these same good looks to carry through on the inside too. Here are some design ideas to make your enclosed pool stand out as something beautiful and uniquely you.
Decorating Your Enclosed Pool
Besides having an attractive design, part of what gives a pool enclosure a sensational look are those additional touches and accents.
The furniture you choose will help dictate the interior of your pool enclosure, so it’s a good place to start. Consider whether you want a modern look, a comfortable setting, something more traditional, or what type of style you’d like to achieve. From there, add in accent pieces. If you’re going for a traditional look, garden pedestals and sculptures can add a lot of charm. For a modern look, think much more sparse, and consider wood or metal accents and furnishings instead.
Plants and Gardens for Your Atlanta Pool Enclosure
Flowers, plants, shrubs and small trees definitely add flavor to an enclosed pool. Which flowers and plants you choose will depend somewhat on whether you have a screened or glass enclosure. This article provides some great suggestions on which plants you may want to consider for your Atlanta pool enclosure.
If you like the idea of plants, but want to try something different, here’s an idea: create a small Japanese rock garden, which uses raked sand or gravel to create a rippling water effect. Add some moss or larger rocks to give it some extra flair. And if you have a small rake, you can always move the sand around to create a different perspective.
Using Lighting to Decorate Your Pool Enclosure
Just like with landscaping, you can also use some dramatic lighting effects to enhance the mood of your enclosed pool.
If you like to swim at night but don’t want to waste electricity, try some inexpensive solar landscape lights. These are surprisingly powerful, and portable lights, which harness the sun’s rays and cost a fraction of the price of regular lights.
Want to be inventive? Lets say you have some small trees in your pool enclosure…wrap some Christmas lights around them and plug them in at night to compliment your enclosed pool nicely in the evening hours.
That Atlanta Weather: Cooling Down and Warming Up in Your Enclosed Pool
As it does get very hot and humid in Atlanta, you’ll find that your pool enclosure will help keep things cool. If you don’t want to invest in an air conditioning system, ceiling fans can compliment the interior and keep you cool in the summertime.
And in the winter, when things get a little chilly, if you have the right type of structure, consider a wood stove, which adds great ambiance and warmth to a room.
These ideas just scratch the surface of what you can do to add some flair to your Atlanta pool enclosure.
