The Hang Out
Project Spotlight: The Ultimate Modern Oasis with a Cantilevered Shade & Water Feature
At Poseidon Custom Pools, we pride ourselves on creating extraordinary outdoor spaces that blend cutting-edge design with superior functionality. This project is a perfect example of how we push the boundaries of pool construction, transforming a simple backyard into a stunning modern oasis.
The Vision
Our client came to us with a vision for a sleek, contemporary pool design that would not only serve as a place to cool off but also as an architectural statement. They wanted something truly unique—an outdoor retreat that combined luxury with an unexpected twist.
The Pool Design
At the heart of this project is a modern, geometric pool featuring clean lines and a minimalist aesthetic. The pool’s design is simple yet elegant, with a serene, infinity-edge that creates a visual illusion of water blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. To maintain the modern feel, we used a combination of glass tiles and smooth concrete finishes, ensuring a sleek, polished look.
The Showstopper: Custom Cantilevered Shade Structure
The highlight of this project, however, is the custom cantilevered shade structure that hovers dramatically over one side of the pool. This architectural marvel provides both form and function, offering much-needed shade while adding an ultra-modern edge to the overall design.
The structure features large steel beams that extend outwards without the need for visible support columns, creating a floating effect over the pool deck. The cantilevered design not only maximizes usable space beneath but also allows for unobstructed views of the water.
Innovative Water Feature: Water Flowing from the Rafters
As if the cantilevered shade wasn’t eye-catching enough, we took it one step further by integrating a custom water feature directly into the structure. Water cascades elegantly from hidden channels within the rafters, creating the illusion of rain falling from the ceiling. This subtle, calming flow of water adds a sensory experience to the space, cooling the air and enhancing the tranquil atmosphere.
At night, the water feature becomes even more striking, with integrated LED lighting that illuminates the falling water, casting a soft glow over the pool area.
The Result
The end result is a breathtaking blend of modern architecture and resort-style luxury. The pool itself offers the perfect balance of relaxation and visual appeal, while the cantilevered shade structure and water feature add an artistic touch that takes the space to the next level.
This project is a testament to what’s possible when innovative design meets expert craftsmanship. It’s more than just a pool—it’s a statement piece, a functional work of art that elevates the entire backyard into a true modern retreat.
