White Harmony: Pera Cream Sandblasted Marble & Porcelain Poolside Retreat

The Canvas: Pera Cream Marble Sandblasted

At the core of this project’s design is the exquisite selection of Pera Cream sandblasted marble. Known for its light cream tones and durability, the sandblasted marble provides a textured, slip-resistant surface that is ideal for pool decks. The designer masterfully utilized Pera Cream Marble in French patterns and 16×24 size pavers, laying the foundation for a serene and inviting atmosphere that blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings.

A Contrast in Textures: Quartzite Look Porcelain Pavers
To complement the soft tones of the marble, the main deck was adorned with quartzite 24×24 porcelain pavers. The porcelain pavers offer a stark contrast in texture while maintaining the project’s overall aesthetic of white and cream tones. This choice not only enhances the visual appeal but also introduces an element of durability and low maintenance, ideal for an outdoor setting.

The Finishing Touch: Bullnose Copings
Understanding the challenges of matching materials, the designers opted for bullnose copings around the pool. These copings were meticulously chosen to complement the existing materials, ensuring a cohesive and polished look. The use of bullnose copings not only addresses the practical aspect of safety but also elevates the project’s sophistication, highlighting the attention to detail that Custom Outdoor Solutions is known for.
