These particular homeowners approached Monogram Custom Pools with some big requests: They wanted to extend their living area outdoors, allowing for al fresco relaxation, entertaining, sliding, swimming and hot tubbing. The homeowners wanted a pool six times the size of a “normal” one, a patio area that could accommodate 40 lounge chairs and a fully automatic, self-sanitizing and self-pH-balancing system that would prevent them from ever having to manually add any chemicals to the pool. They also requested an elaborate internet- and iPhone-based automation system that would allow them to control every aspect remotely—including the waterfalls, spa, lights, heater, etc.—and a unique, saltwater pool composition for a softer, gentler swim with less chlorine, among other things. Once it was completed, the homeowners had a personal resort that rivals some of the best in the world.
