Swimming Pool Design That Blends Heritage With Contemporary Living


As specialist architects for swimming pool extensions across Yorkshire, our designs remain sensitive to your scenic or historic surroundings. One such project is a sun-filled natatorium for a heritage country home near Harrogate. Following our ethos of understand, solve, and deliver, you can see in this project how we integrated old with new to envisage a swimming pool design in Yorkshire that explored harmonious space, materials, function and synergy with its landscape.

Tranquil Private Swimming Pool Design In Yorkshire


We transformed a former outbuilding on a period coach house into a serene spa area in this design brief. Using the building’s natural beauty, with stone walls and timber-framed sunroom features, the swimming pool space was designed to capture abundant sunlight and offer calming views of the stunning surrounding grounds—a tranquil space to blend with nature.

Sustainable Swimming Pool Architecture, Creating An Eco Spa


The former coach house presented design challenges due to its narrow yet elongated configuration. However, this obstacle enabled us to design a carbon-neutral, energy-efficient swimming pool. Alongside a longer swimming length, the south-facing roof offered the opportunity to incorporate solar panels for Passivhaus concept green energy, sustainable insulation technology, and further windows to maximise energy-saving through abundant natural light.

Eco Architecture

Swimming Pool Design That Considers Lighting, Climate Control, Landscape & Function


We always consider every aspect. From the initial concept and feasibility study, the functionality of your pool area is carefully considered. How will it be used, and what would elevate the space? This project’s glass-fronted sauna and open-plan shower were ideal enhancements. Function combined with pool lighting, climate control, and the surrounding landscape formulated our design with the utmost detail and precision. Exploring the character-defining features of your existing structure leads to a project’s success. In this project, it evolved even further, seeing further transformations of this estate.

Our turnkey swimming pool design process starts and ends where you need. For instance, in this project, we took our client from concept to obtaining planning approvals and, finally, project management of the sunroom pool construction. Our approach to conservation ensures that your new swimming pool honours the heritage of the area where it resides whilst enriching your lifestyle and enjoyment—an elegant balance of past and present within a unified structure that appears like it always existed.
