Pool and Patio Project, Val de Telha,Aljezur
This saltwater pool was built to the highest standards, in cast concrete and tiled with Italian glass mosaic tiles with a custom seahorse mosaic by Paula Watt.Although a classic design, it has all the latest technology including a heat pump for those winter dips and automatic chlorination.
The rustic patio is in "Bradstone" reconstituted stone and the pagoda is made from low humidity imported wood.The "Medusa" water feature was designed and installed by Tawny Gray.The shower has thermostatically controlled hot and cold water.The "barbie" has a traditional Portuguese bread oven and also features a fridge for those drinks with umbrellas !
At night the scene is lit by purple in floor wall washers and underwater lighting in the channels leading from the water feature as well as nearly 1 kilowatt of pool lighting creating an amazing show of ambient lighting, all controlled by dimmer switches for total mood control.
