Pool, Fountain And Outdoor Shower Tiles That Make A Big Splash

March 07, 2012
Spring is coming, reminding us that we will soon be headed outside to spend more of our time in the sunshine with family and friends. In anticipation of summer, we can begin to think about how to create or enhance our outdoor surroundings to ensure maximum enjoyment of the warmer months ahead. For many of us, that means installing or updating a swimming pool, fountain, or an outdoor shower to enhance our backyard surroundings.

Pool tile is taking the lead as the design element that can help to integrate the pool into the landscape, resulting in a cohesive and tranquil outdoor setting. This popularity has generated a need for greater options of a more artistic nature with higher quality finishing materials.

Designs can be simple as a bold border that runs underneath the inner edge at the top of the pool, or they can be as detailed as the laying of an intricate stone or glass tile mosaic at the bottom of your pool or fountain that stands out like a piece of artwork on an outdoor canvas. Ordinary concrete can be a thing of the past when replaced with an extraordinary lining of natural pebbles or glass. Tiles are also commonly incorporated on pool steps as an attractive safety measure to make changes in depth more noticeable and stunning backdrops can be created for water features that pour into the pool or fountain. Smooth, natural, polished stone flooring can provide tired feet with an outdoor shower experience like no other.
