Courtyard Pool with Black Stone Water Wall
About Pool Area Interiors
Common questions from homeowners.
It is the black stone water wall at one end of the pool, where a fine curtain of water falls in front of a dark stone frame. It gives the courtyard both a focal point and a soft water sound in the evening.
The pool is edged with a dark stone coping that frames the green-tinted water, and the deck around it is finished in light stone paving. That dark-on-light contrast is what makes the pool shape stand out.
The green tint comes from the pool's darker lining and the evening light, not from the water itself. Against the pale stone deck it reads as a deep, calm green rather than a bright blue.
Warm uplights are tucked into the planters and along the walls, the water wall is grazed with light, and there are spots in the landscaping. It keeps the whole courtyard glowing softly without any harsh overhead glare.
Yes, a water curtain works even on a compact pool or a plain garden wall. You mainly need a stone or tiled frame and a recirculating pump. Share your space and the designer can size it to suit.
