When the Cooper family envisioned their Keller outdoor retreat, they sought geometric precision that would complement their contemporary home while creating layered gathering spaces. Their 8,072-gallon pool navigates the residential landscape with architectural clarity, its clean lines establishing visual harmony with modern architecture. The custom geometric spa floats as a separate form, connected through a dramatic five-layer tiered spillover that creates cascading water movement and acoustic backdrop. Tanning ledge depths at nine inches provide comfortable lounging, while dual eighteen-inch sheer descents punctuate the composition, their illuminated cascades transforming the space from daytime recreation into evening theater.
Materials & Finishes
Caribbean Blue Peerless Pebble plaster provides the pool's rich foundation, deepening the water's appearance throughout changing light. Philadelphia Travertine coping with 1.25-inch thickness and eased edges defines clean pool perimeters, while City Stone Pearl concrete pavers in French pattern extend the sophisticated hardscape palette. Buff Leuders stone veneer in chopped block adds vertical texture to raised beam walls. The custom geometric spa features integrated bench seating and dedicated steps for comfortable access.
Design & Features
Pool benches at twenty-one inches and tanning ledge at nine inches create graduated lounging zones. Four umbrella sleeves provide flexible shade, while bubblers add kinetic energy to shallow areas. Noble Tile MS 866 B1 Blue in 6x6 format completes the waterline detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a tiered spillover work with a geometric pool?
A tiered spillover creates cascading water movement between the spa and main pool through multiple levels, adding visual drama while maintaining geometric precision. The Cooper project features a five-layer spillover connecting the custom geometric spa to the main basin, creating both water movement and acoustic backdrop for outdoor entertaining. The spillover integrates seamlessly with the contemporary architecture, using clean lines and precise angles that complement the geometric pool form. Each tier is carefully engineered for proper water flow while creating visual interest that makes this the project's signature element.
What makes Philadelphia Travertine suitable for pool coping?
Philadelphia Travertine offers exceptional durability and heat resistance, making it well suited for pool coping in Texas climates. The 1.25-inch thickness with eased edges provides clean geometric lines while offering comfortable grip surfaces around the pool perimeter. The Cooper project showcases how this natural stone maintains its appearance and structural integrity while complementing contemporary design. The travertine's neutral tones work harmoniously with Caribbean Blue Peerless Pebble plaster and the geometric water features, creating a cohesive material palette throughout the outdoor living space.
Can you integrate multiple seating areas in a geometric pool?
Geometric pools excel at incorporating multiple seating zones through strategic placement of benches, ledges, and steps at varying depths. The Cooper project includes pool benches at twenty-one inches, spa benches at twenty-one inches, spa steps at nine inches, and a tanning ledge at nine inches, creating graduated comfort zones throughout the water. Each seating area serves different purposes—the tanning ledge for lounging, pool benches for conversation, and spa benches for relaxation. The geometric design allows these features to integrate seamlessly while maintaining clean sight lines and architectural consistency.
How do sheer descents enhance a contemporary pool design?
Sheer descents create vertical water features that add kinetic energy and visual interest to geometric pool compositions. The Cooper project's dual eighteen-inch sheer descents provide cascading water movement that transforms the space from daytime recreation into illuminated evening theater. These features work particularly well with contemporary design because their clean, geometric water flow complements modern architectural lines. With integrated lighting, the water cascades become focal points after dark, extending the pool's visual impact throughout evening hours and enhancing the outdoor living space.
What's the benefit of French pattern pavers around pools?
French pattern pavers create sophisticated hardscape design through varied rectangular sizes that form natural, non-repetitive layouts around pool environments. The Cooper project uses City Stone Pearl concrete pavers in French pattern to extend the contemporary aesthetic while providing durable surfaces for wet areas. This pattern works exceptionally well with geometric pools because it adds textural interest without competing with the water features' clean lines. The varied paver sizes create visual movement in the decking while maintaining the sophisticated material palette that elevates the entire outdoor living space.
