About this title

Synopsis

Few constructions better epitomize leisure and comfort than the swimming pool. Although at times pools serve landscaping or sporting functions, most often swimming pools are associated with lazy hours enjoyed under the sun in a bathing suit, the only concern being to finish a beverage before the ice cubes melt. Spectacular Pools presents a selection of some of the most stunning swimming pools in the world. Included are more than twenty-five inspirational pools located in both the coastal and inland United States, on the Mediterranean, and in the Caribbean, Australia, and Asia, providing a spectacular overview of different pool designs and creations from all over the world.
