Roman
Semicircular ends — formal elegance with a full swim lane
The Roman pool pairs a rectangular body with semicircular ends, a silhouette borrowed from classical baths. You keep an honest swim lane down the middle while the ends soften the geometry and make natural places for steps — a Roman staircase flowing out of the curved end is the signature move.
- Classical and Mediterranean houses
- Formal gardens
- Elegant step entries
Strengths
- Formal, architectural presence
- Full-length swim lane in the straight body
- Curved ends are natural homes for wide steps
- Works beautifully with travertine and stone
Trade-offs
- The curved ends add forming and tiling cost
- Slightly less floor area than a rectangle of the same length
- Suits classical settings more than minimalist ones
