Description:
What do you need to know to design a pool? Despite being a straightforward question, you won’t find the answer in typical landscape design programs, so we will start at the beginning: choosing the location of the pool. Next will be the fundamental things you need to know about how a pool is built so that you can be sure your design is buildable. We will talk about specifying a location for the pool equipment and how to hide it from view. We will cover some basic regulations you’ll need to know (no matter where you are in the country). And finally, we’ll spend plenty of time on the fun stuff: how to specify the materials in and around the pool. No experience with pool design is necessary to take this class.

· Discuss the basics of pool design
· Explore your options for pool layout and shape
