I prefer a rectangular shape, approximately 8m x 4m, with straight, clean lines to complement a modern architectural style. The surrounding area will include large-format tiles/paving, minimalistic landscaping, and a neat, uncluttered layout to maintain a calm and luxurious feel. I would like to include built-in pool lighting for ambiance in the evenings. I am also open to a simple, elegant water feature, but nothing overly busy or high maintenance.
