Pure minimalism: a crisp white-on-white design where the White Pearl interior turns the water a soft glacier blue, and manicured turf runs right up to the Crema Bella coping — no deck, no clutter, just green and water. The showpiece is the spa, set flush inside the pool at water level with a full 360° spillover rim, so it reads as a floating square of calm rather than a raised box. Twin bubblers stir the entry shelf, gas heat brings the spa up fast on winter nights, and full Jandy automation puts the whole system on your phone. Quietly one of the most architectural pools we've built.

Designer’s note
The design brief here was restraint. Every choice strips away a visual layer: one interior color (White Pearl), one coping tone (Crema Bella), and turf run directly to the coping so there's no deck band breaking up the composition — the pool reads as a sheet of water set into the lawn.
The flush-set spa is the defining move. Raising a spa adds mass and shadow; dropping it to water level with a 360° spillover makes it disappear into the pool's surface, visible only as a shimmer where the water slides over the rim. It keeps the whole backyard's sightline flat and calm — nothing between the house and the fence line but green and glacier blue.
White-on-white also does practical work: the pale interior maximizes light reflection, so even on overcast days the water holds that bright, luminous color, and the Castille 6x6 tile with white grout keeps the waterline from ever drawing the eye.
The result is a pool that photographs like architecture — and lives like one, with the spa's spillover providing the soundtrack.
