How To Choose A Pool Colour

With so many pool colours available, selecting the perfect one for your backyard can be overwhelming. We’re often asked which Designer Beadcrete shade is most popular, but like most trends the hottest colour can shift per season so it’s important to consider a number of factors when deciding on your pool colour.

What’s your vibe?

Before you go too far down the colour path, think about the overall feeling you’re wanting to create from your backyard space. Is there a design style you’re following, such Hamptons, Balinese, Minimalist. You must also consider the existing design elements of your backyard and home exterior, how can you complement these best? Let these factors assist you in determining your colour palette as a starting point.

Water Colour

Your pool is likely to be the centre piece of your backyard, and as such it should reflect your style with wow factor whilst complementing the landscape. Water colour is a huge part of a pool’s visual appeal and consideration on the right hue for your backyard theme and pool landscape should be given. You also need to think about the light and reflection a pool gets when deciding on the Designer Beadcrete colour for your backyard.

Contrast it

Your pool colour should be a contrast from your landscaping and surrounding design elements. If your decking is dark timber, granite, slate or a darker stone you should look at lighter pool shades. Likewise, if your surrounding design is travertine, sandstone or a lighter tile you should think about choosing a dark shade for water colour. 

Shedding a little light on light

It’s important to know that a lighter pool colour is more inclined to draw your eye to the bottom of the swimming pool and you may notice settled debris a little more easily. Lighter water also reflects more sunrays, which can result in cooler pool water, and the potential for more glare. But with the right mix of Designer Beadcrete, these factors can be overcome, if your design requires a lighter shade.
