Living Pool - Motueka, Nelson

The owner required their park-like organic garden & stately Victorian home to be complemented by a Living Pool.
The outcome was a formal 4.5 m x 9m rectangular pool with a stainless steel waterline surrounded by un-treated thick, rough sawn purple-heart timber boards/coping to create a rustic, yet modern look.

Massive macrocarpa bollards on the adjoining macrocarpa decking take up this eco theme. Here the biological filter is hidden beneath the decking that connects the pool to the house. No plants are required for the Living Pool.
