– Backyards are getting a serious glow-up—and pools are leading the charge. From modern designs with resort-worthy features to automation that practically runs the show, today’s pools are all about style and simplicity. The best part? They’re easier than ever to own with less upkeep and more “ahhh.”
Whether you’re planning a new pool or thinking about an upgrade, here are five trends making waves on the pool scene, according to the experts at Latham, The Pool Company:
Bold Colors & Custom Patterns
Say goodbye to bland and hello to bold. Sleek, modern pool shapes—from rectangles to abstract curves—are pairing with rich, dark blue hues for a dramatic look. Homeowners are also ditching tile borders for seamless, continuous interior patterns, with contrasting accents on steps and ledges to create a high-end, custom vibe.
Plunge Pools with Big Appeal
Don’t have a massive backyard? No problem. Plunge pools offer all the perks of a traditional pool in a smaller, more efficient footprint. Latham’s new plunge designs feature built-in seating, slip-resistant steps, and stylish finishes. Bonus: They use less water, are cheaper to heat, and are easier to maintain—making them a smart, sustainable choice.
Pool & Spa Combos
Why choose between a pool and a spa when you can have both? Combo designs bring together the best of both worlds—relaxing jets, tanning ledges, and spillover spas that add visual appeal and soothing sounds. Whether you’re cooling off or winding down, this trend turns your backyard into a five-star escape.
Formidable Fiberglass
Fiberglass pools are having a major moment, and for good reason. They’re strong, stylish, and incredibly easy to maintain. Thanks to their smooth, non-porous surface, they resist algae and need fewer chemicals than concrete pools. Even better? They can be installed in just a few days, so you can dive in sooner—and with less hassle.
Awesome Automation
Automation is making pool ownership simpler than ever. With tools like The Attendant, you can monitor and adjust your pool’s chemistry, temperature, and settings—all from the convenience of your phone. Add an automatic safety cover and you’ve got a pool that practically runs itself while saving on energy and maintenance.
