A Modern Twist!

Swimming pool styles, shapes, and trends have come a long way since the old kidney shaped pool that was once seen in nearly every backyard beginning in the 1940’s.  California Pools has been building swimming pools of all different styles since 1952, and we have enjoyed the variety of pools that interest our homeowners and love the individuality that comes out of each design. The wonderful thing about designing your backyard swimming pool is that you have the freedom and opportunity to be artistic and creative, as unique as you’d like, or take on a traditional design approach. The sky is the limit and your backyard is a blank canvas just waiting for an artistic design to bring you a beautiful backyard oasis.  Today, many homeowners are wanting a simple, clean, and modern design. If you have been debating what style swimming pool you’d like to build, and aren’t quite sure your style, you might want to consider a contemporary design with a modern twist! If your backyard visions include crisp lines, mosaic tile, vanishing edges, sleek sheer descents, and angled designs, this might be the style for you!
