10 × 4.5 m Grecian
pool plan
A full family pool: a shallow end where kids stand and games happen, a proper deep end for diving-free swimming, and enough length that two people can swim without negotiating. This is the most-built size class in private gardens for a reason.
The Grecian pool clips the rectangle's corners at 45°, giving an octagonal outline that reads formal and deliberate without a single curve. It keeps nearly all the rectangle's swim length, and the angled corners make elegant seats for steps, benches or planters at the pool's edge.

Questions about this plan
- How much water does a 10 × 4.5 m pool hold?
- About 63.5 m³ (63.5 tonnes of water) at 1.2–1.8 m depth — computed from the actual pool outline, not a rule of thumb.
- How long does it take to fill?
- Roughly 42 hours from a standard garden tap (~1.5 m³/h). A water delivery service fills it in a few hours.
- Is this size right for my garden?
- The water surface is 42.7 m²; plan roughly 1.5–2× that footprint including the surrounding deck. Open the plan in the designer and set your own deck margins to see the full footprint.
- Can I change the depth or edge type?
- Yes — open the plan in the designer and adjust depths, edge system (skimmer, deck-level overflow or raised), finishes and accessories freely.
