No. 34 Pools · Tudor

Sunken Rectangular Pool and Raised Spa

Set beside a Tudor home featuring half-timbered steep gables and leaded glass, a rectangular pool sits among brick pathways, stone walls, boxwood hedges, and a raised spa.

Design notes

Tudor pools answer brick and half-timber with formal geometry. Look for herringbone brick or flagstone terraces, a rectangular pool edged in stone coping, yew and box hedges enclosing the pool garden, roses and wisteria on a dark timber pergola or pool house, and leaded-glass detailing on any pavilion. Darker plaster suits the mood.

What to look for

  • The coping — how the deck meets the water sets the whole tone
  • Where the spa sits and how it spills into the pool
  • Night lighting: which features glow and which stay dark
