Having a small pool is not the same as having a large one. A large one means a much larger space to swim and move freely in the water. However, we must not get carried away by conventional definitions to stop opting for the pool in smaller and less spacious outdoor patios. In this Idea Book we are going to show you six small pools that we liked for how charming they are and also because they are quite spacious and provide space to swim, even when their size is much smaller than a large pool. Now that summer is coming, and if we want to build a pool, it is important to start taking measurements and start construction.
SCUALO POOLS
One of the main advantages of opting for a small pool over a larger one is that they are easier to clean and also easier to cover. There are very modern covers on the market, such as thermal blankets, which allow the collection of rainwater accumulated on it. Also, there are pool covers that are made of aluminum, and allow the water temperature to be kept 10 degrees higher than the outside temperature, to always offer lukewarm baths.
Obviously, one of the first steps is to take the measurements that your future pool will have in the patio. Choose a style that suits the house and that is consistent with both the decorative and aesthetic style of your patio. In this photo we can see one with modern touches and clearly surrounded by a well-kept and modest natural green. Super stylish.

If we do not seek advice from specialists when building our pool, we are open to making mistakes. Nowadays it is common that it is the large pools, and not the small ones, that allow the practice of diving, so building a small pool in depth can end up being super counterproductive. Think that if you build too deep, you run the risk of taking up too little space for the liking of all the people who will enjoy it, in addition to reducing the walkable space. When space is at a premium, choose to prioritize cooling off over nothing, and lounging in the spaces around the water instead of running in it.

The shape that your pool will have will depend both on the space you have to build it and on your own taste. The typical is the square or rectangular shape, prioritizing the length before the width, to make better use of the water space and carry out more activities in it.

Once we have taken all the necessary steps to start building the pool of our dreams, it is necessary to do the math and decide what material we are going to use. If we decide to build in concrete, we are guaranteeing eternity, but if we want a job done quickly and that is cheaper in maintenance time and money, fiberglass is always a good option.
CRISCI POOLS
Creating a pool with indefinite edges, also known as Finnish edges, you make sure that the pool is flush with the ground it, giving the sensation of being larger.
