The site and the problem
The outdoor pool was exposed to leaves, dirt and changing weather. The owner wanted a clear enclosure that could be moved to allow a more open pool setting.
What the client needed
- Reduce debris entering the pool.
- Use a black frame with transparent panels.
- Keep the cover retractable.
Design and installation approach
The clear panels sit within a black aluminium framework. The taller arched form encloses more space above the pool than a low cover.
Sliding telescopic sections allow the coverage to change. The overall height is a project dimension; usable clearance depends on the curved profile and frame position.
The result
The completed enclosure gives the pool movable overhead and side cover while keeping the water visible through clear panels. The black structure creates a defined outline within the backyard.

Questions about this project
Is the roof height the same across the enclosure?
No. A curved roof varies in height. The recorded 2.4m overall dimension does not establish uniform clearance underneath.
