Roman/Grecian Pools Design & Build
Building Grecian pools allows us to connect history to modern design principles.
What is a Roman/Grecian Pool?
A classical and symmetrical swimming pool design inspired by the architecture and aesthetics of ancient Rome and Greece, that typically features rectangular or oval shapes, ornate detailing, and statuesque elements for a timeless and elegant look.
A captivating embodiment of classical antiquity and architectural grace, a Roman/Grecian Pool is a realm of swimming pool design. Drawing inspiration from the grandeur of ancient Rome and Greece, these pools exude an aura of timeless elegance. They typically showcase symmetrical rectangular or oval shapes, flanked by meticulously designed columns and ornate detailing reminiscent of ancient temples and structures. Statues and sculptures often grace the pool’s surroundings, adding a touch of classical artistry. Coping and paving materials, like travertine or marble, contribute to the pool’s classical authenticity.

New Build
A Grecian pool is a throwback to a time when things were simpler. It can be designed so that it brings to life a classic aesthetic with modern technology.
Renovation
Adding fire features, seating walls and water features can make a space more Roman. Designing these elements so that they fit your space is our specialty.
LED Lighting
Replacing your current lighting with LED lights can color your space differently. It can also make sure this is the last time you’ll replace a bulb in your pool.
Travertine
One of the materials that feels most natural on a Grecian pool is travertine. While it’s native to Turkey, it’s exactly what we Texas picture in Roman times.
Raised Spa
While a Roman pool is simple, an easy way to dress it up is with a raised spa. It adds a depth and texture to the space that’s difficult to achieve without it.
Carvestone
Specifically during a remodel, Carvestone can update the decking so that it’s period specific. It’s custom colored, carved and grouted specifically for you.
