How to Make Your Pool the Centerpiece of Your Backyard

A pool isn’t just a feature—it can be the defining element of your backyard. With the right design, landscaping, and additional features, your pool can become the centerpiece of an outdoor space that’s perfect for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying time with family and friends. Kingswood Outdoors specializes in crafting pools that bring beauty, functionality, and style to any backyard.

Ways to Highlight Your Pool

1. Build Surrounding Decking
A well-designed pool deck creates a natural transition between your pool and the rest of your backyard. Choose durable materials like stamped concrete, pavers, or natural stone to add texture and character.

2. Incorporate Landscaping
Surround your pool with lush greenery, colorful flowers, or decorative shrubs to soften hardscaping and blend the pool into its environment.

3. Add Water Features
Fountains, waterfalls, or bubblers enhance the pool’s ambiance and make it a true showpiece.

4. Install Pool Lighting
LED lighting improves safety and creates a magical atmosphere for evening swims or poolside gatherings.

5. Include a Poolside Lounge Area
Create a comfortable space with outdoor furniture, umbrellas, or cabanas for relaxing after a swim.

Custom Features to Elevate Your Pool

1. Infinity Edge Pools
Perfect for modern aesthetics, infinity edges add sophistication and create the illusion of endless water.

2. Tanning Ledges
Shallow areas for lounging provide a great way to stay cool and enjoy the sun.

3. Fire Features
Add contrast to the water with fire pits or bowls, offering warmth and a striking visual element.

4. Swim-Up Bars
Combine entertainment and functionality with a bar area that makes serving food and drinks seamless.

5. Built-In Spas
Integrate a spa for a touch of luxury and year-round usability.
