The Nick Williams Pool Design Process
Nick Williams Outrageous Pools - Part 1
Do You Want to Remodel Your Pool? or Do You Want to Remodel Your Pool the Nick Williams Way?
Pools: (The Nick Williams Pool Design Process is very often added to his pools, whether they be remodels or built from the get go (click here to view the article) The process is an artisitc treatment using various colors, textures, different sized stones, pebbles flagstone, creating the illusion of depth coupled with using Pebble Tec, Nick usually works with a Natural Style Pool Design or Infinity Style pool which can also include the elements of the Natural style pool.
Natural Pools: Natural pool designs have become the new and preferred way to style this important water feature for the home. The ideas here can vary but they have one essential theme—straight and squared edges of human building give way to the gentle curves of Mother Nature. The kidney shaped pool was the first iteration of this concept, but Nick Williams has developed it much further in creating wonderful natural designs that flow in graceful curves or are styled to appear as if they were natural ponds, some even fed by free flowing streams, styled or natural waterfalls and graced by lively fountains. These fresh new looks for pool design keep the essential theme of seamless integration with the garden, grounds or natural setting around the pool. Thus we get particular attention paid to how the edges of the pool are constructed, with the inclusion of boulders, unique tiling, flagstone, pool side planters, fire fountains and other interesting features.
Infinity Pools: The infinity pool is becoming increasingly popular in sites where you have an unusually striking view, particularly one that stretches to a distant horizon. The water level along the edge of the pool facing this vista is elevated to the very top of that edge, and so from within the pool one has the sensation that they are sitting at the edge of infinity, as the local setting seems to blend seamlessly into the distance as the eye reaches out to the horizon. This concept can also be applied in a multi-tiered design, there the infinity edge of the pool is above another water feature, perhaps creating a waterfall effect into that lower space. The distinctive visuals of these pool designs make them unique and edgy additions to any natural setting.
The process Nick Williams to design pools is a very flexible and adaptable method for any setting. Nick will choose the highest quality materials from Belgard, and utilize precise new methods he has developed to harmonize with Pebble Tec finishing. “Pebble Tec”® is a brand name pool finish—the original pebble pool finish, and still delivers the enduring natural elegance and durability that combines beauty with exceptional value. Available in 18 attractive shades, a Pebble Tec pool interior is the perfect choice for individuals desiring a more natural look for their pools, spas, or water features.
Nick Williams has added his own process, his own flair to the standard Pebble Tec design. In this process he mixes different types of stone with concrete, in various sizes, to create diverse surface textures, to simulate a shoreline, stream bed or forest pond. The finished Pebble Tec format will look natural in any setting. Also in designing pools, Nick considers how light interacts with the water, to create the illusion of deep depths in certain areas of the pool. Add some beautiful outdoor lighting from the Nick Williams lighting collection and you have finished the job!
And you can take the best of both worlds here by designing your natural pool to be an infinity pool!
