How do you turn a regular inground pool design into an unforgettable custom inground pool? By diving into unique luxury pool ideas from Brothers Grimm!
Since 1995, we’ve been helping Ohio homeowners transform outdoor living spaces into oases of luxury. And we’re proud to be more than custom pool builders – we’re innovative custom pool designers with lots of experience making backyard dreams come true.
Even if you’re only ready to dip your toe into our custom pool services, our creative suggestions just might inspire you to take that leap into the deep end.
Let’s jump right into some of our fave ideas for bringing your unique vision of a luxury swimming pool design to life!
Strikingly Simple Design
Contemporary interior design is all about simplicity. Clean lines, uncluttered spaces and streamlined color palettes make any room feel more modern – and the same principles can be applied to luxury swimming pool design!
Opt for a simple geometric shape rather than a freeform configuration to create a calming minimalist effect. Then add glass tiles at the waterline for a dazzlingly opulent look. Or dial up the drama by considering how pool liner color affects your pool. The most popular choices are light gray, pale blue and white, all of which keep the water looking bright and translucent. Bolder options include:
- Dark blue liner for deep blue water
- Beige or cream liner for turquoise water
- Black liner for a stunning mirror-like effect
Dynamic Water Features
Nothing levels up the luxury of inground swimming pools like adjacent backyard water features! A water garden, koi pond or fountain can help integrate your pool into your wider property while adding a sumptuous feel. But the most useful addition to a high-end inground pool is an integrated spa. A jetted hot tub adds a deeper dimension to any custom pool project – one your family can enjoy year-round!
Brilliant Lighting 
Light up your alfresco entertaining game with thoughtfully customized outdoor lighting! From pathway lights that keep guests safe to underwater lights that make night swimming a possibility to stylish LED lighting that highlights landscaping and architecture – well-chosen lighting is one of those outdoor upgrades that increase home value while amping up your family’s enjoyment of your property.
Custom Structures
Choosing an inground pool’s design is really about creating an outdoor living space that fits your lifestyle. The experienced custom pool designers at Brothers Grimm love suggesting out-of-the-box ways to do that! Custom structures attached to your luxury swimming pool design add both eye-catching beauty and elevated functionality. They can be as simple as a diving board or as complex as a bridge that allows guests to stay dry while crossing over the pool to other spaces, as swimmers glide by beneath.
Or how about an underground water slide that lets kids of all ages enjoy two distinct swimming areas? From pool houses with all the amenities to custom pool slides tailored to your property, Brothers Grimm can build it all!
Tanning Ledges & Infinity Edges
A tanning ledge is a shallow section of the pool where sun worshippers can catch a few rays within easy reach of cooling water. It’s also a safe and more easily supervised area for toddlers and less experienced swimmers to get splashy. Make yours large enough to accommodate several lounge chairs and an umbrella or two to get the luxury inground swimming pool experience of an exotic resort!
An infinity edge gives high-end inground pools a sense of endless luxury. They dovetail beautifully with simple pool designs, adding an upscale and contemporary feel. Create a cool visual illusion of being immersed in never-ending water – as well as an excellent vantage point for enjoying pool landscaping that elevates your entire backyard.
Waterfalls & Fire Features
To make the most of your backyard, luxury pools need a combination of elements. We love curtain waterfalls for creating movement and sound that still gives a contemporary vibe. But if you’re looking for features to upgrade your backyard entertainment with visual drama, fire is the way to go! Whether it’s a free-standing fire table, a rustic fire pit or a combined water-and-fire feature, the flames add warmth and excitement to your luxury swimming pool design.
