| The ideal pool landscape design will flow with the architecture of your home and the rest of your landscape. When you first start collecting ideas for what you want your pool-side landscape to look like, take note of the patterns of straight lines and curves in your house and any nearby garden structures. Continuity of color and texture also helps. Keep in mind the colors of the house and its surroundings. It usually looks better and makes designing easier if you choose one color scheme and stick to it, rather than dabbing a little color here and a little there and ending up with a something that looks like an Art Deco experiment gone wrong. Don’t wait until the pool is already installed to consult a landscaper—talking with a landscape architect early in the process, before you’ ve installed any permanent structures or planted any expensive trees or shrubs, can save you from costly mistakes. |
