A Luxurious Poolside Makeover by Terraform Landscaping in Ascot, Brisbane
Nestled in the prestigious suburb of Ascot, Brisbane, this home’s rear inground swimming pool was in need of a contemporary facelift. The pool, while structurally sound, lacked the charm and functionality the homeowners desired for their outdoor space. Terraform Landscaping, known for exceptional craftsmanship, stepped in to transform the area into a sophisticated, functional retreat. With a combination of premium cream stone tiles, strategic water drainage solutions, and custom-built rendered walls, the pool area became a standout feature of the home.
The homeowners envisioned a luxurious yet practical poolside environment that would complement the elegance of their property. They wanted the space to be inviting for entertaining guests, relaxing with family, and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of their backyard.
After an initial consultation and site assessment, Terraform Landscaping proposed a design centred around 30cm cream stone tiles for the pool surrounds, a strategically placed drainage system to prevent water pooling, and metre-high rendered walls to add privacy and a clean architectural element.
Terraform Landscaping began the project with meticulous planning, ensuring that every aspect of the renovation aligned with the homeowners’ vision and the site’s unique characteristics. The design needed to address functional concerns, such as proper drainage and stability, while achieving a polished, cohesive look.
The existing pool area was surveyed to determine the best placement for the drainage system and walls. This assessment allowed the team to prepare for the challenges of working around an established pool without compromising its structure.
One of the focal points of the renovation was the installation of 30cm cream stone tiles around the pool. These tiles were chosen for their elegance, durability, and slip-resistant properties, making them both practical and visually appealing.
The area was first levelled and prepared with a strong base to ensure the tiles would remain stable over time. Terraform Landscaping’s team carefully laid each tile with precise spacing to create clean lines and an even surface. The cream tones of the stone added a warm, inviting touch, perfectly complementing the surrounding greenery and the shimmering pool water.
To prevent water from pooling on the tiled surface, a high-performance drainage system was installed around the pool. This system was designed to channel water away efficiently, particularly during Brisbane’s heavy rainfalls.
Subtle grates were integrated seamlessly into the tiling design, ensuring they did not detract from the pool’s aesthetic appeal. By addressing drainage concerns, Terraform Landscaping not only enhanced the functionality of the space but also ensured its longevity and safety.
To add a sense of structure and privacy to the pool area, metre-high cream rendered walls were built along the rear and left-hand side of the pool. These walls provided a clean, modern backdrop that framed the pool beautifully while offering a level of seclusion from neighbouring properties.
The walls were constructed with reinforced concrete for stability, then rendered and finished in a soft cream tone to match the pool tiles. Their minimalist design created a cohesive look, enhancing the sense of sophistication in the outdoor space.
With the major components in place, Terraform Landscaping turned their attention to the finer details. The grout between the tiles was carefully applied, ensuring a seamless finish that would withstand exposure to water and sunlight. The walls were treated with a protective sealant to maintain their pristine appearance against the elements.
To complete the transformation, the team installed subtle lighting fixtures along the walls and around the pool area. These lights accentuated the cream tones of the tiles and walls, creating a serene atmosphere for evening gatherings.
The completed renovation exceeded the homeowners’ expectations. The 30cm cream stone tiles provided a luxurious, durable surface that enhanced the usability and aesthetic of the pool surrounds. The drainage system worked efficiently, ensuring the area remained safe and dry.
The metre-high rendered walls added a touch of sophistication and privacy, framing the pool area in a way that blended seamlessly with the home’s architectural style. Together, these elements transformed the once-ordinary pool area into a chic, functional outdoor space that the homeowners were proud to showcase.
