First of all, the pool design will probably be unconventional in a unique, creative, and intriguing way. In this sense, the small back yard can be a real advantage for the pool. Swimming pools that are tight on space have to be very careful with how they use their space. In some cases, small pools end up looking like very large spas, but the quality of the design can be comparable to any large or medium-sized luxury pools.

Small swimming pools often require privacy because the lots in the area are small. In order to provide the necessary privacy for a small, comfortable inground pool environment, landscaping and masonry structures can be utilized. No one wants to swim in a back yard where the neighbors can see you from their backdoor. Small pools with masonry walls will increase the level of privacy. Shrubs can line the yard with privacy but still allow sunlight into the pool area.

If you are an avid swimmer with a small back yard, small pool designs can feature state of the art pump technology that transforms the swimming pool into a virtual lap pool where you can swim against the current without bumping into walls or turning around every two strokes. These pumps or swim jets serve as valuable technology for small inground pools.

For materials and finishes, small pool designs do not have much surface area to cover. This means swimming pools can feature high-end finishes and materials without going crazy with the budget. The pool patio, for example, can feature the most impressive natural stone material, without going way over budget, because you only need something like 40 square feet. This same idea can be applied for the pool plaster as well.

In the end, these pools are limited, but the small space has some advantages. Fine materials, nice finishes, unique designs, and luxury features help these small swimming pools make up for their challenging size. Unfortunately waterfalls are out of the question, but water features can be incorporated into the design. Small pools are all about compromise. Unfortunately, small pools are usually better fit for calm relaxation than wild fun and excitement. If you are willing to work with an experience pool design professional, he or she will be able to make the most out of your space. Remember, the realistic limitations of the space can be successfully balanced out by luxurious features, finishes, materials and designs.
