RUNAWAY BAY
Location: Runaway Bay, Queensland
Designer: Paul Clout
Home builder: Allwood Contractors
Photographer: Rix Ryan Photography
Project summary
Designed in collaboration with luxury home designer Paul Clout, this unique, curving 23-metre lap pool is 1.25 to 1.70 metres deep, with swim-up and sitting benches, dive deck, automated in-floor cleaning, automated water management system, solar pool heating, frameless glass panel fencing, travertine paving and sun deck.
To account for its length and shape, the pool was engineered and constructed in two sections that anchor the structure approximately 4.5 metres below the canal water level on 37 screw piers.
The easterly position takes advantage of morning sun while LED niche lighting transforms the pool into a crystal lagoon at night.
