Escape to Your Own Backyard
Newsletters | 08.16.24
On a scorching summer day, nothing is more inviting than a swimming pool. Pools can transform your backyard into a private oasis and provide a refreshing break from your hectic routine. Pools loosen up your busy schedule by giving you a reason to spend your leisure hours at home.
Pools can be tailored to fit with your existing hardscaping and landscaping and can employ a wide range of styles. Our goal is to design your swimming pool to be an extension of your landscape, whether that’s a classic, reserved design or a more involved project that includes custom shapes, waterfalls, boulders and tanning shelves. Whatever specific design you want to pursue, now is the time to start planning a future of cool and relaxing summers.
Installing a new swimming pool is an involved process that takes deliberate and proactive planning. If you’re looking to create a backyard oasis, the process begins now. Contact us and schedule an onsite consultation with our design team. This will give us an important starting point as we set the wheels in motion. If you have any further questions or ideas, we’d love to hear from you!
Concerned About the Amount of Space You’ll Need?
A plunge pool might be the solution your property calls for. As the name implies, plunge pools are geared for cooling off and relaxing, rather than lap swimming or exercise. Working with a smaller footprint, plunge pools take advantage of limited space and, owing to their smaller volume, have lower maintenance requirements and operating costs. Unique to this style, plunge pools can be operated as a cooling respite in the summer and then heated for use as a spa during colder weather.
Blue Tree Landscaping can design and build any size plunge pool to fit any backyard. Click here to learn more about our custom plunge pool options.
FUN FACTS
About the 5 Rings in the Olympic Logo
The five rings in the Olympic logo represent the five world regions that the athletes originally came from. The logo was originally designed and hand-drawn in 1913 by educator and historian Charles Pierre de Frédy, Baron de Coubertin, known as the founding father of the modern Olympic Games and co-founder of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), created in 1894. The Olympic symbol was originally designed by the Frenchman to feature the now legendary five rings as a way to pay tribute to the Games’ participants and the five regions of the world – Australia, Africa, Americas, Europe, and Asia – that the athletes came from.
