Torres Novas Prestige Swimming Pool

Descriptive Memory

A swimming pool designed and constructed as a work of art: The "PRESTIGE” is a beetling concrete pool: as a work of art, this technique allows to achieve the most daring shapes, original dimensions, the bolder curves, swimming pools with waterfalls or overflow gutter and steps with exotic shapes. Only the beetling concrete allows the imagination to express itself with complete freedom. With “Prestige”, is the very structure that ensures the sealing of the pool, leaving to the interior lining a purely decorative role. This technique allows complete freedom of imagination and creativity at the glass tessellation level, natural stone, marble ... and regarding to decorating the imagination is the limit!

Intervention type: Construction of a 10 x 5 swimming pool with overflow and integrated SPA.

This was a project very daring since the beginning and required a lot of planning. It was intended that the SPA formed an integral part of the pool and at the same time it would be accessible from the house interior.
This was done using a glass canvas that slides over the water line.
The Bisazza glass tessellation in gray shades and the Tecnodeck pavement dialogue with the entire house language.
In the inside face of the masonry stone area of the housing has also been placed an ESSENCE 228X228X96 PARAGON SPA - gray in the outside and pearl inside.
This implementation was the subject of a detailed study in order to fit in the best way possible- steer the views and at the same time ensuring some privacy
