In a society where food is fast and rush hour is routine, relaxation is much desired yet rarely experienced. Instead of having to drive to a spa just to unwind, imagine looking no further than your own backyard. The talented designers at Atlas Pools ensure your backyard is a representation of your lifestyle, creating a comfortable and serene environment.
These days, backyard sophistication involves more than an in-ground swimming pool and gas grill. From outdoor kitchens and fireplaces, to gazebos, grottoes and gorgeous landscaping, Atlas Pools knows no limits when it comes to outdoor living. According to Mark Spiezio, owner of Atlas Pools, “Our design experts take several factors into consideration, including the architecture of the house, the surrounding topography and HOMEOWNER’S budget. In fact, we will create such a serene ‘getaway’ that you’ll never want to leave your backyard.”
Spa Elements
An outdoor space should be a tranquil setting that encourages relaxation and promotes togetherness. “At Atlas Pools, we customize every ‘pool-scape’ to meet the needs of each client. We’re more than just a pool company—we provide a total environment,” Spiezio says.
Amenities such as an outdoor fireplace, outdoor cooking center, outstanding stonework and pavilions all contribute to a cozy atmosphere. What’s more, incorporating features like stunning waterfalls and vanishing edges are nice finishing touches to an outdoor space. However, Spiezio is quick to turn down such features if they do not look natural against the surrounding topography. “If the land is too flat, then a waterfall may look artificial. Our design team will sit down with the client and consider other options.”
Keep It Clean
These days, pool maintenance is simple and stress-free. “High-tech elements like an in-floor cleaning system and a salt-based chlorine generator keep away debris and purify the water,” Spiezio comments. Gone are the days when pools reeked of strong chemicals and chlorine. “Owning a pool doesn’t have to involve daunting maintenance work,” he adds.
Enjoy the Great Outdoors
What good is a relaxing environment if you can’t share it with the ones you love? Optimize your outdoors by creating an open space that’s perfect for entertaining. “With an outdoor kitchen, everything you need to entertain your guests is right there in front of you. Over the past few years, outdoor kitchens have become one of the hottest trends in entertaining,” Spiezio says. Additionally, they add to the real estate value of a home—they’re an investment.
Start Relaxing!
Armed with expert advice from Atlas Pools, you’re just steps away from relaxation. No more rushing to the spa just to relax—you can find serenity in the comfort of your own backyard.
