Build Your Luxury Backyard Oasis 

While some homeowners prefer the clean lines and minimal design of a straight line pool, others want something that imitates nature or has softer curves. If that description fits your vision, a freeform or lagoon-style pool may be the perfect addition to your Florida home. 

Van Kirk & Sons Pools & Spas specializes in residential lagoon swimming pool design and construction in South Florida. Learn more about the appeal of a lagoon pool and how to customize one for your home. 

What Is a Lagoon Pool?

A lagoon pool has a freeform design meant to look like a naturally occurring body of water, such as a lake. Lagoon pools usually have features that make them feel part of the outdoors, such as decorative rock waterfalls and fire pits or bowls. 

The design of a lagoon pool can create a sense of privacy and seclusion in your yard. Enjoy your own personal retreat without leaving home. 

Why Choose a Freeform or Lagoon Pool? 

Many homeowners choose this pool style to create a unique and relaxing outdoor space, and natural features are generally appealing. 

Often, landscaping details are part of a lagoon pool’s design, enhancing privacy around the pool. If you want a place to unwind in the water, a lagoon pool may be perfect for you.

Freeform pools are often the perfect choice for homeowners who want a truly custom and unique feature in their yards. No two lagoon pools are the same. Yours can reflect your personality and tastes thanks to its details and amenities.

Customize Your Residential Lagoon Swimming Pool

Lagoon pools are like snowflakes — no two are the same. Van Kirk Pools can help you create a fully customized and unique freeform pool in your yard. Here’s what to consider when designing your swimming pool.

Pool Shape

A lagoon pool has a freeform shape rather than a rectangular or circular form. You can try drawing shapes to see what setup appeals most to you. Our design experts can help you choose a style that will work in your yard and create an enjoyable and relaxing pool area. 

Pool Features

The features surrounding your pool transform it from a basic freeform swimming pool to a luxurious lagoon. The features you choose for your pool’s design are up to you, but some of the more popular options include:

• Rocks Waterfalls: Rock features are a great way to add visual interest to your pool, making for an excellent place to sit and relax with your feet in the water. Add the soothing sounds of nature to your lagoon pool by incorporating a rock waterfall into your design.
• Landscaping: If you want to make your pool area a private retreat, consider installing greenery around the perimeter. 
• Lazy river: A lazy river enhances the luxury of your lagoon pool, creating a place where you can drift and watch your cares float away.
• Beach Entry: A beach entrance, or zero-entry pool, is a popular feature in lagoon-style swimming pools, as it reflects the gradual descent of natural bodies of water.
