Confounding the usual function of a bridge, as infrastructures that span to overcome a body of water, this water-filled overpass towers ten stories above ground level, linking the two private buildings. The 90-foot-long structure is constructed from eight-inch-thick acrylic panels, which were engineered and constructed in Grand Junction, CO and then shipped across the pond. The final result has pedestrians gazing up as much as swimmers are looking down.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item alignleft wp-image-86192 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ZIG-house-with-2-holes-and-a-secret-pool-2.jpeg\" alt=\"swimming pool ZIG House with 2 Holes and a Secret Pool\" width=\"1559\" height=\"1438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ZIG-house-with-2-holes-and-a-secret-pool-2.jpeg 1559w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ZIG-house-with-2-holes-and-a-secret-pool-2-300x277.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ZIG-house-with-2-holes-and-a-secret-pool-2-1024x945.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ZIG-house-with-2-holes-and-a-secret-pool-2-768x708.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ZIG-house-with-2-holes-and-a-secret-pool-2-1536x1417.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ZIG-house-with-2-holes-and-a-secret-pool-2-325x300.jpeg 325w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1559px) 100vw, 1559px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item alignleft wp-image-86193 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/zig1.jpg\" alt=\"swimming pool ZIG House with 2 Holes and a Secret Pool\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/zig1.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/zig1-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/zig1-1024x712.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/zig1-768x534.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/zig1-1536x1068.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/zig1-400x278.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/projects\/zig\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ZIG House with 2 Holes and a Secret Pool<\/a> <\/strong>by <a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/firms\/cimini-architettura\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">arcari cimini architettura<\/a>, Abruzzo, Italy<\/p>\n<p>This small house \u2014 spanning just 625 square feet, harmonizes two priorities: a relationship with light and relationship with water. This is achieved by nestling the structure into the side of an embankment, then carving out two distinct external spaces, and punching two biomorphic holes in the ceiling. The first is an entrance porch open to the countryside, the second is an interior patio that hides a private pool from where to watch the sky. The result is a distinct structure in dialogue with the surrounding landscape that also offers a private and intimate place.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item alignleft wp-image-86171 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool-1.jpeg\" alt=\"swimming pool design Hofs\u00f3s Swimming Pool\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool-1.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool-1-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool-1-400x267.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_86173\" style=\"width: 1290px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86173\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item wp-image-86173 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool2.jpeg\" alt=\"swimming pool design Hofs\u00f3s Swimming Pool\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool2.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool2-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool2-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool2-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hofso\u0301s-Swimming-Pool2-400x267.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-86173\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photos by Gudmundur Benediktsson<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/projects\/hofsos-swimming-pool\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hofs\u00f3s Swimming Pool<\/a> <\/strong>by <a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/firms\/basalt-architects\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BASALT Architects<\/a>, Hofs\u00f3s, Iceland<\/p>\n<p>Hofsos is a small fishing village in the northern part of Iceland; this contrast of this tiny scale to the country\u2019s expansive landscape served as the inspiration for this swimming pool.

The main pool area is now adorned with a series of square windows overhead, which allow natural light to flood into the area and dance in the pool\u2019s reflections.

Inside, soft lighting, fluid architectural promenades, and curves replace the bold exterior, with children\u2019s pools that create the feeling of being wrapped in a cocoon.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item alignleft wp-image-86189 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-1-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"swimming pool architecture Westport Poolhouse\" width=\"2012\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-1-scaled.jpeg 2012w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-1-236x300.jpeg 236w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-1-805x1024.jpeg 805w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-1-768x977.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-1-1207x1536.jpeg 1207w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-1-1610x2048.jpeg 1610w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2012px) 100vw, 2012px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_86191\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86191\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item wp-image-86191 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"swimming pool architecture Westport Poolhouse\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-3-400x267.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-86191\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photos by Fran\u00e7ois Dischinger<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-86190 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1978\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-300x232.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-1024x791.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-768x593.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-1536x1187.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-2048x1583.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-66x50.jpeg 66w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Westport-Poolhouse-2-388x300.jpeg 388w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/projects\/westport-poolhouse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Westport Poolhouse<\/a> <\/strong>by <a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/firms\/span-architecture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SPAN Architecture<\/a>, CT, United States<\/p>\n<p>A semi-enclosed pool house anchors this alternate al-fresco living area, drawing on material cues from the existing stone house and landscape walls scattered across the property. The stunning series of 40-foot-long cedar pergola beams are held aloft by a fragmented stonewall. While the interplay of interior\/exterior spaces was paramount, water features also play a starring role; the pool, hot tub, and koi pond (all of which have differing thermal, ph, and salinity requirements) are not treated as separate entities, but are arranged to appear as a single body of water, inviting visitors to float their way towards the poolhouse.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item alignleft wp-image-86168 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1.jpeg\" alt=\"swimming pool design Bar-Pool-Gallery\" width=\"2184\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1.jpeg 2184w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1-300x206.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1-1024x703.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1-768x527.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1-1536x1055.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1-2048x1407.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-1-400x275.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2184px) 100vw, 2184px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_86169\" style=\"width: 2406px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86169\" class=\"lazy lazy_media_item wp-image-86169 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2.jpeg\" alt=\"swimming pool design Bar-Pool-Gallery\" width=\"2396\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2.jpeg 2396w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2-300x188.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2-1024x641.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2-768x481.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2-1536x962.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2-2048x1282.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-2-400x250.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2396px) 100vw, 2396px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-86169\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photos by Jomar Braganca<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-86170 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2250\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3.jpeg 2250w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bar-Pool-Gallery-3-400x267.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2250px) 100vw, 2250px\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/projects\/bar-pool-gallery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ba<\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/projects\/bar-pool-gallery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">r-Pool-Gallery<\/a> <\/strong>by <a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/firms\/bcmf-arquitetos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BCMF Arquitetos<\/a> with MACh Architects, Nova Lima, Brazil<\/p>\n<p>Designed and built over just three months, the \u201cBar-Pool-Gallery\u201d presents itself as a modern hilltop belvedere.

Competing with surrounding tall buildings, the architects met the challenge of breaking out of a boxy urban space. For this reason, they \u201cloosed&#8221; the floor plan, breaking the pool deck into a series of smaller terraces integrated with the swimming pool. Avoiding perpendicular lines, a skeletal superstructure adds a three-dimensional twist to the outdoor space.<\/p>\n<p><em>Architects: Want to have your project featured?
