This pool with a spacious sun terrace in Girona was designed with clean lines to organise the outdoor space of a private home and encourage everyday use. The composition combines a rectangular basin with a generous paved area connected to the pergola and lounge furniture.
The aim was to create a visually calm surface of water, with no construction elements interrupting the main geometry. Swimming, relaxation and socialising are brought together through a clear layout, comfortable routes around the pool and material continuity that unifies the design.
Design and integration into the outdoor space
The layout makes the most of the spacious garden and keeps views of the planting and landscape open. The pool sits on a pale platform that defines the bathing area while creating a transition between the lawn, pergola and seating areas.
The spacious outdoor sun terrace is more than a circulation area around the pool. Its width accommodates loungers and provides useful space for relaxing by the water. The project therefore becomes a complete outdoor setting where swimming and socialising share a single composition.
The pergola at one of the short ends creates a sheltered area for furniture. Its dark structure contrasts with the pale paving and defines the lounge without separating it from the pool with a spacious sun terrace in Girona. The surrounding garden remains prominent and softens the geometric design.
Features of the pool with sun terrace in Girona
The rectangular pool has a direct geometry suited to a contemporary setting and easy to integrate into the plot. An internal staircase provides access, while the second step extends to form a submerged bench. This element combines entry into the water with a place to sit inside the pool.
This pool has an integrated skimmer finished in the same material as the interior. The continuity reduces its visual presence and prevents a technical component from standing out against the mosaic, giving the walls and upper edge a cleaner appearance.
The combination of bench, steps and paved outdoor area supports different uses: entering the water gradually, sitting in the pool, swimming or relaxing outside. The pool with sun terrace in Girona therefore retains a simple form while adding functions that enhance comfort without changing its composition.
Glass mosaic and stone-effect paving
The interior is finished in glass mosaic, mixing blue, white and greenish tiles. This range of colours creates a shifting surface, particularly visible in the shallower areas where the contrast between individual pieces is clearer.
As the water deepens, the colours blend visually and become more uniform. The finish therefore offers two readings: detailed near the steps and bench, and calmer at the centre. It is one of the defining visual features of this pool with a spacious sun terrace in Girona.
Outside, stone-effect porcelain paving in a warm white tone has been used. The pale finish complements the water, contrasts with the greenery and gives continuity to the platform. It also brings the white furniture and dark pergola structure into a balanced palette.
Integrated cleaning and LED lighting
The project includes an automatic in-floor cleaning system. Designed to clean the bottom of the pool, it reduces reliance on a robotic cleaner or routine manual cleaning. Its integration keeps the bathing area clear and simplifies regular maintenance.
Underwater LED lights are distributed throughout the pool. After dark, they enhance the presence of the water and highlight the changing shades of the glass mosaic without altering the design’s overall geometry.
In this pool with sun terrace in Girona, aesthetic and functional decisions follow the same approach: ordered forms, visually discreet technical elements and spaces designed for different uses. The result balances the water, garden and areas for socialising and relaxation.
