It’s hard not to get reminiscent during the holiday season. As our team prepares for a new year and new exciting builds, we thought it the perfect time to look back on some of our favorite recent projects. From luxurious estates to stunning commercial properties, this list features our Lowcountry pool builders’ and designers’ Aqua Blue favorites of 2024.
Isle of Palms
Design: Lautner Edge Pool with Inset Spa
Located on the picturesque Isle of Palms, this stunning Lautner Edge pool design captures the essence of luxury and modern elegance. The pool’s sleek geometric shape is complemented by an inset spa that creates an aura of ultimate relaxation, all while maximizing the breathtaking coastal views. The combination of its contemporary design and strategic placement makes this pool a standout feature of this gorgeous, oceanfront South Carolina property.
Kiawah Island
Design: Infinity Pool with Detached Spa
On the serene shores of Kiawah Island, the Beatty project features an infinity pool with a detached spa, designed to mesh with the surrounding natural beauty. The infinity edge provides a stunning visual effect, giving the illusion of water cascading into the horizon line, while the detached spa offers a peaceful retreat to enjoy this view year-round. This project reflects the perfect balance of modern design and coastal tranquility.
The Cooper, Downtown Charleston
Design: Infinity Pool Overlooking Charleston Harbor
Currently under construction and slated for completion in 2025, The Cooper is “the only luxury waterfront hotel in the vibrant heart of the Charleston Peninsula.” This soon-to-be iconic commercial project will feature an infinity pool overlooking the Charleston Harbor. This waterfront luxury hotel is poised to provide Charleston, South Carolina, vacationers with breathtaking views and unforgettable memories with unparalleled poolside experience. This stunning custom-built commercial infinity pool is a highlight of the new property.
The Cape on Kiawah, Kiawah Island
Design: Commercial Infinity Pool
The Cape on Kiawah infinity pool offers dreamy views of the Kiawah Island oceanfront. With a sleek design and prime position, the Aqua Blue pool is a favorite of both our team and the Charleston community. This commercial project exemplifies the important role that surrounding natural beauty can play in enhancing a swimming pool design. Private beach access creates a seamless oceanfront pool experience.
Daniel Island
Design: Infinity Pool with Inset Spa and Sun Ledge
This pool is a gem of South Carolina residential pool design. Combining function with fashion, this infinity pool creates an ideal space for relaxation and recreation. With its cascading waters, the vanishing edge adds a touch of elegance, while the sun ledge provides sunbathers with an escape from the heat (but not the glorious southern sunshine). Unique tiling around the spa adds a touch of personality to this residential pool.
Southern Living Idea House, Johns Island
Design: In-ground pool with hydraulic pool cover
As part of the 2024 Southern Living Idea House on Johns Island, this custom in-ground pool features a hydraulic pool cover, making it a unique and practical addition to the home. The hydraulic cover system provides easy access to the pool while keeping it clean and secure when not in use. This functional yet stylish pool is a perfect example of how modern technology and design can come together to create an outdoor space that is as practical as it is beautiful.
