boardformed pool

reinforced concrete.

The boardformed pool began
along the lines of a mountain
stream for a narrow site: raw,
unadorned and trough-like - an
escape from the plastic world
of typical pool finishes.

The inner sides of the trough
were constructed of formwork
made from bare-sawn timber,
rough and badly joined planks to
achieve a pool wall surface a
blind carpenter would not have
been proud of. The pool floor
was laid with textured tile for
the primary effect of colour.
Brass pool light rings and a
polished concrete tension edge
rounded up the finish details.

The result was a tub sixty-five
feet long and seven feet wide
with the texture of a timber
shack and the colour of a
sunbronzed sea.
