This striking backyard transformation in Toorak is the epitome of refined outdoor living, delivering a sophisticated concrete pool and spa that double as both a wellness retreat and a functional work of art. The finished result is a seamless blend of architectural elegance and cutting-edge pool design, tailored to the client’s love of exercise, aesthetics, and art.
At the heart of the space is the pool and spa, featuring a full wet-edge design with a concealed perimeter gutter, creating a mirror-like surface that flows evenly on all sides. This not only transforms the pool into a dynamic water feature but also reinforces its role as a visual centerpiece of the home’s outdoor area. The addition of a spa offers a luxurious escape, designed for comfort and relaxation alongside the home’s private gym and sauna.
Finishes were carefully selected to complement the home’s French provincial architecture. Smooth limestone edging borders the pool, while white glass mosaic tiles enhance the water’s clarity and depth, giving the space a clean, elegant aesthetic. The result is a serene yet visually bold outdoor environment that ties into the home’s traditional charm while offering a contemporary edge.
Fully automated systems for heating, cleaning, and pool maintenance allow for year-round enjoyment with minimal upkeep. This means the owners can enjoy early morning swims, evening soaks, or simply admire the tranquil beauty of the pool as a moving artwork—all with effortless control.
This project is a testament to thoughtful design and expert execution, where every detail of the finished product contributes to a luxurious, functional, and visually harmonious outdoor lifestyle.
