The owners of a private Lancashire home approached Preston Pools to design and build a statement indoor pool hall. The brief called for a luxury swimming pool, an integrated spa, dedicated sauna and steam facilities, and a clean contemporary aesthetic — a single space that would feel as much like modern art as a leisure facility.
The brief demanded resort-level features within one coherent room: a level-deck pool, an inset spa, twin feature fountains, a counter-current swimjet, and separate sauna and steam suites — all without the space feeling crowded or visually busy. Managing humidity and air quality across such a varied wet environment also required careful planning.
We specified a 16m × 7m level-deck pool with a 3m square inset spa, framed by large-format Italian porcelain. A matt and gloss stretched vinyl ceiling with recessed RGBWW lighting unifies the room, while marble-clad benches, a translucent ceiling above the steam room and a concealed automatic pool cover keep the lines uncluttered.
The finished pool hall is a 16m × 7m level-deck pool finished in iridescent white mosaic that reads turquoise beneath the water, flanked by twin oversized cobra-head fountains. The room feels calm, generous and architectural — and remains one of our personal favourite commissions to date. The family use it daily.
