A garden with an over­flow pool

This garden impresses with a very modern look, while at the same time meeting the exact needs of the custo­mers. They wanted a low-maintenance garden as they had previously had a lot to do with a swim­ming pond. The pool is still being used thanks to the Living Pool tech­no­logy cleaned natu­rally and without chemi­cals. The over­flow pool is perfect for water sports and the back­ground noise with gentle splas­hing is also retained for custo­mers thanks to this design.

The swim­ming pool with over­flow basin is central to this spec­ta­cular garden, as the water surface is level with the surroun­ding area. The mix of high hedges as privacy screens and soft grasses frames the outdoor living area. 

Other soli­tary trees provide shade and create a wonderful pattern on the ground. The exci­ting mix of clear lines and playful plan­ting go hand in hand and give the garden this unmist­akable atmo­sphere. The plan­ting changes constantly due to the diffe­rent flowe­ring periods, so that the view of the garden is constantly chan­ging and magi­cally draws you outside.

The over­flow swim­ming pool

The pool imme­dia­tely catches the eye because it is perfectly flush with the floor. This effect is made possible by the cons­truc­tion of an over­flow pool. Visually, the pool is a very special high­light in this garden, as this design means that the entire surface, inclu­ding the water surface, is at exactly the same height. This seam­less tran­si­tion gives the garden a very harmo­nious overall look. The over­flow pool is not only the visual high­light of the garden: the pool is also always present acou­sti­cally.

The water flowing over the edge creates a constant splas­hing, so that the back­ground noise of a swim­ming pond is main­tained. Even when swim­ming, the waves splash over the edge so that the water surface remains calm without the waves boun­cing off the edge. As the pool is also often used for swim­ming sports, the over­flow pool is also a visually very high-quality and useful solu­tion for this.

Seating under the trees and between the bushes

The exten­sion of the wooden deck increases the usable area enorm­ously, making the garden appear much more spacious than before. The change of decking elegantly divides the diffe­rent areas of the garden. On hot summer days, there is a lounger in the shade under the plane tree where you can enjoy the garden after cooling off in the water. The leafy cover gives the slightly elevated retreat a calm and natural feel. Perfect for hot summer days.

Plan­ting list

In summer, the grasses shine in lush green until the hydran­geas slowly begin to bloom and form a veri­table sea of flowers behind the pool. From late summer to autumn, the grasses and their panicles turn into a wonderful sea of grasses.
