When Guncast were instructed for a swimming pool design project for a client in Surrey, it was clear that design-wise, the client was inspired by Japanese architecture and style. Once the design idea of a pool design inspired from experience in Tokyo and Kyoto was presented to the client, it was clear the design had captured their vision and with a few adjustments, an inspiration became a reality.
The design featured black mosaic tiles to give a reflective effect to the still water, with limestone and hardwood decking surround to give a truly distinctive design to the swimming pool. The other major design feature was the infinity edge to the long side of the pool which spilled over into a pebbled rill. It was fundamental to the design that the water could be heard trickling over the infinity edge to give the true comparison to some of the design and architecture from Japan
