Swimming Pool Ceramics




The designers say it very best: “Fountains give life to gardens and urban spaces…” And they’re correct, as you can see by these examples brought to brilliant life by Wales firm Craig Bragdy Design. Water features of numerous types, be they cascades or “waterwalls,” are refreshing focal points that can add colour, reflect sunlight, or hide a much less-than-desirable view outside the garden. Long semi-circular “channels” can serve as gathering areas in a hotel or commercial developing lobby, with mosaic styles that complement the building’s décor. In numerous of these situations, the “channel” differentiates locations of a lobby or foyer from 1 yet another: inside the circle, a spot for dining or beverages, and outdoors it, shops or other organization issues. When you want a divider, handful of factors are more elegant than a body of water!

A spa, on the other hand, can really feel like a mere add-on to a lap pool — unless it has the charm of some of these examples. Take a look at spa methods that are literally color-infused staircases into tiny pools with “shells” on the bottom. You can have spas with flowered “floors,” swirled pastel paisley-influenced borders, or stylized flowers all around the bench seating spots. Colors? The sky — or possibly we must say the visible spectrum! — is the limit: blues might be expected in a spa, but pale pinks, lavenders, and even reds and oranges also appear fabulous. How about an asymmetrical spa with a “sunburst” at its heart — or a “garden” of crystals at its core? Colorful, lively, or serene, it is up to you: let these designs give you inspiration for your personal particular water “spot.”

Swimming Pool Ceramics




Wouldn’t you love to take a plunge in one particular of the fabulous “worlds” shown right here that can be created around, and inside, a pool — by means of mosaic operate by true pool artisans? These are just some of the fanciful “underwater worlds” that Craig Bragdy Design and style gives its clientele. Appear at how some of these pool edges appear to be “shorelines” even indoors: graceful swirls of “sand” cover the measures, providing you the really feel of walking into your extremely personal corner of the ocean. See the graceful shells underfoot? Don’t worry — they’re not sharp at all they just look great. Nothing’s dangerous here: a single client even had a exceptional rendition of a Wonderful White carried out soon after literally coming eye-to-eye with one in true life!

And that college of fish? When you get in the water and start swimming, they can appear to “swim” correct along with you. You can have your pool include exotic “plants” that appear to sway in the waves you make, or invite some harmless but beautiful jellyfish into your watery haven. Make your pool look deeper with gradations of blue tiles that darken toward the center, for a “bottom” that goes on forever. Shimmering dark blues make any white you have at poolside — including an ordinary white stone deck — absolutely gorgeous. And that is just speaking about their look in daylight add some nicely-placed lights and you can generate a one particular-of-a-kind ambience that turns your pool into a private jungle lagoon. Fairly significantly anything’s achievable in the hands of skilled mosaic artists they can take your pool areas it’s in no way been prior to.
