Although Memorial Day is the “official pool opening” day, private pools open earlier and earlier every year. Here are three of our favorites.
Mountain Retreat
DeWayne and Linda Bridges let travel influence the design of their Overland Park pool. The couple spends a lot of time in Colorado, so the pool reflects their inspiration of a little mountain stream surrounded by boulders. They worked with Banks Blue Valley Pool & Spa for the design and Land Art, Inc. for the landscape.
French Inspired
Full disclosure: The homeowner, Heidi Peter, has moved twice since her South of France-inspired pool was featured in the magazine. We’re jealous of whomever suns poolside at this Fairway pool now.
Cool Pool
In this Mission Hills backyard, a contemporary fireplace juts into the pool, combining fire and water. The infinity edge blends into the sky. Pool designed by Lorax Design Group.
