  2. These are fabulous swimming pool designs. The photos really show the different skills and talents of the architecture and engineers who created these designs. I am also certain that the materials used in these pools are high quality materials. They've used granite, limestone, cements, tiles and more. I'd love to have a pool that's made up of limestone. I'm planning to buy a new house next year.

  3. I love the transparent pool design. It looks amazing and very unique. I've seen this style on the movie "This means War". The room has a pool installed above it. It's a brilliant idea to put a pool on top of the room/house.

  7. I love the idea of creating a transparent pool. Just below that pool is a perfect room with great and enticing interior design. The floor looks great as well. If I'm not mistaken, the floor is made up of granite or marble.

  8. The indoor pool in Japan looks cool. I heard they don't have real beaches where people can swim because it's their seas are too dangerous for some reason.

  10. I agree with the comments. These are all very unique and stylish swimming pool designs. I'm pretty sure that they used concrete materials in building these infrastructures. By the way, I'm amazed with the beauty of the Ocean Dome in Miyazaki. It looks huge indeed. I look forward to seeing this place in the near future.
