Rehabilitación de una Casa del Empordà El encanto de ayer para la vida de hoy. En determinadas ocasiones nos encontramos con proyectos que queremos hacer sea como sea. Rehabilitación de una Casa del Empordà del siglo XVII. Además, quien nos hacía el encargo nos prometía una fructífera colaboración. Se trata de Sylvie Travers, decoradora y propietaria de la casa. Ella y su marido, llevaban cinco años viviendo justo delante de la finca. Como vecinos, se sentían extrañamente atraídos por esa vieja edificación de muros macizos, inmensas puertas de madera y pequeñas ventanas. Un buen día se atrevieron a atravesar la salvaje y abandonada vegetación que cubría el patio de entrada y empujar la inmensa puerta de madera. Dentro no encontraron maravillas sino un mundo de posibilidades. Para hacerlas realidad, contaban con nuestra ayuda. Esta casa dispone de diferentes habitaciones, una suite espectacular, un salón con mucho carácter, una cocina-comedor rústica pero moderna al mismo tiempo, un hamam subterraneo y una piscina exterior con elementos reciclados que se integran naturalmente al entorno. Adaptar el conjunto de las estancias a un uso actual fue el mayor reto que nos ofrecía esta gran casa. Repensar este espacio para conseguir una adaptación minuciosa al estilo de vida presente y futuro de sus habitantes, requiere una comprensión profunda de los hábitos de sus propietarios y saber encontrar soluciones técnicas, y también imaginativas, para sortear las múltiples dificultades técnicas que una finca de estas características lleva de la mano. Mención a parte merece el mobiliario especialmente escogido, así como todos los elementos decorativos, que consiguen dotar a esta casa de un carácter especial. Salvaje y sofisticado al mismo tiempo.

Rustic Lengths Swimming Pool Ideas and Designs

A rustic garden or outdoor swimming pool can be a great way to cool off in the summer, and when the swimming pool covers are on, the fun can continue with steaming hot tubs or home spas. Better yet, if you have the budget and the space to work with, why not install an indoor swimming pool that can be enjoyed all year round? Whether you are looking at the luxury of hot tubs, want a small plunge pool, or you’re planning a brand new outdoor swimming pool or home spa installation, we have plenty of rustic hot tub and outdoor pool designs for you to dip into here at Houzz.

Do new indoor or outdoor swimming pools increase the value of homes?

Outdoor or indoor swimming pools can significantly impact property value by attracting buyers with bigger budgets who are looking for a little luxury in their home. However, installing a large rustic swimming pool could also negatively impact the value of your house if there isn’t enough space left in your garden for anything else. This is why it is important to seek guidance from a swimming pool installer or expert, and choose a swimming pool installation that can fit tastefully in your garden. If you are planning to sell your home, you may also want to look into the range of large inflatable, above ground swimming pools now available so that you can take it with you when you leave.

What type of swimming pool should I install?

The British weather can be unpredictable at best, so while an infinity pool or luxurious outdoor pool may be a stunning addition to a holiday villa abroad, it may be a good idea to look into small rustic plunge pools, heated pools and indoor swimming pool designs instead. This doesn’t mean you will have to compromise on style – even natural swimming pools, which can look stunning when well placed in leafy and luscious gardens, are heatable and therefore usable in slightly colder months. If you don’t quite have the space for a large swimming pool, there are plenty of small rustic swimming pool ideas and designs to work with, and if you speak to an expert they may be able to design bespoke swimming pools to fit perfectly in the space you have. Simple plunge pools are great additions to courtyard gardens or other quiet outdoor spots where you want a quick, refreshing dip, but don’t want the space to be dominated by a large pool. A plunge pool will have to be very carefully planned out, however, as you need the right drainage and safety features, so you can’t just throw one in wherever you have space. Speak to a professional who has experience installing plunge pools beforehand. Of course, with nice garden hot tubs you may not be able swim lengths but you will be able to relax in your garden no matter the weather as you look up at the stars. If you are on a budget there are also affordable inflatable hot tubs that could work in your garden. And, just like inflatable pools, the extra advantage is that they will be able to come with you if you move!

What material should I use for spas or hot tubs?

For a hot tub to survive the changing seasons it is important to choose a material that will be durable. Cedar or other wooden hot tubs can look attractive, but will be harder to maintain. The most popular material is often vinyl for its affordability and versatility but this material is also less likely to last. To get the best bang for your buck, we would recommend opting for a concrete or a fibreglass hot tub or spa, which would provide you with a sturdy solution. In addition, metal above ground hot tubs can be a durable option. To finish off the design of your hot tub we would also recommend that you build a wooden platform around it or take a look at our canopies and gazebos for some privacy. Browse the rustic swimming pools, plunge pools and hot tub photos from professional designers and installers and save your favourites to an ideabook. You can then contact the professionals that worked on any of these swimming pool designs to see if they can create something similar for your house project.
