Every Laguna pool is shaped by how it fits in with daily life – day to day, season to season and over time. Each feature responds to place and architecture, shaping how every space is experienced.
From pools with water features and integrated wellness zones to refined detailing and carefully considered swimming pool surfaces, Laguna creates pools with purpose that feel balanced, intuitive and timeless. Our passion is to create pools that will shape memories for generations to come.
Many of the architectural features explored here, including integrated cold plunge pools and acrylic viewing panels, are only possible through a custom concrete pool build, allowing complete design freedom to perfectly suit your requirements and lifestyle.
Designed as part of the pool’s architecture, these elements introduce movement and atmosphere without demanding attention. Across Laguna’s projects, these features are designed to add movement and atmosphere without dominating the space.
From sculptural fountains to stunning feature walls, each element is integrated into your pool, with finishes that have been included in the design right from the beginning
The result is a pool environment that feels settled and considered, whether experienced from within the water or viewed from the home and beyond.
Spas are designed as natural extensions of the pool, creating space to slow down and reset. When integrated within the pool’s footprint, moving between warm and cool water is simple – no climbing out or crossing cold paving. Just easy, immediate use.
For families, it means relaxing in the spa while staying close to children in the pool. It also allows a seamless shift between swimming, play and hydrotherapy, extending use beyond summer.
Integration can streamline equipment and improve heating efficiency. Visually, the spa is shaped into the overall design, whether set into a corner, placed symmetrically or finished with contrasting tiles or a raised spillover edge, so it reads as one beautifully complete environment.
Requests for cold plunge pools are becoming increasingly popular, where wellbeing and daily rituals can form part of how the space will be used. Laguna designs cold plunges as calm, purposeful elements, often positioned alongside spas or lap pools to support balance and contrast.Their scale, placement and finish are carefully considered so they feel integrated, intuitive and quietly resolved.
In our Clifton Hill project, a cold plunge was incorporated into the main pool - a technical masterpiece - and the first of its kind in Australia.
An infinity edge is one of the defining luxuries of a custom concrete pool. Water flows over the edge in a continuous sheet, creating the illusion that the surface extends into the landscape or horizon beyond.
The overflow smooths the water to a mirror-like finish and introduces a soft, ambient sound that feels calm and resort-like. By visually removing the boundary, the pool area feels more open and connected to its setting.
Beyond aesthetics, the continuous spillover supports effective surface skimming and water turnover, helping maintain clarity when engineered correctly. Achieving this effect requires true craftsmanship, supported by precise levelling, advanced hydraulics and meticulous construction.
The result is a pool that delivers a stunning visual impact while performing as beautifully as it looks.
Integrated features such as champagne shelves, full-width bench seats, generous steps and shallow beach zones are built directly into the pool structure, enhancing functionality and encouraging all-day use.
Swim-up seating and bar-style ledges bring a relaxed, resort feel to entertaining, while submerged benches allow you to sit comfortably in the water without swimming laps. These areas become intuitive gathering points, whether it’s parents staying close while children play or friends lingering with a drink at sunset.
Shallow zones and wide steps also create safe, comfortable spaces for children to paddle and build confidence, supporting a multi-age environment where everyone can enjoy the pool at once.
Because these elements are integrated in your preferred spaces in the pool, rather than added on or designed as part of a pre-cast frame, the design remains clean and uncluttered. The pool becomes a place to pause, gather and linger – not just swim.
Acrylic viewing panels are an architectural feature only possible within a custom concrete pool. They introduce a striking visual moment, revealing the movement and colour of the water from outside the pool and transforming it into a feature that can be appreciated from multiple angles.
The clarity of acrylic provides uninterrupted, distortion-free views, whether seen from inside the home, adjacent outdoor spaces or, on stepped sites, from below. This creates a sense of openness and allows the pool to become part of the architecture.
Structurally engineered and highly durable, these panels require precise detailing and advanced construction. The result is a sculptural centrepiece that transforms the pool into something to be experienced from every angle.
Some of the most important features sit quietly beneath the surface. Advanced in-floor cleaning systems can be integrated into every Laguna pool to support consistent water clarity and long-term performance, all without relying on robot vacuums or manual intervention. Because the cleaning heads are built directly into the pool structure, there are no cords, no equipment clutter and no need to constantly retrieve or replace external cleaners.
Designed to work continuously and efficiently, these systems circulate and clean the water from the bottom up, helping maintain a balanced and pristine pool environment over time. The result is a smarter, more streamlined approach to upkeep - allowing owners to spend more time enjoying the pool and far less time maintaining it.
Laguna builds fully customised concrete pools, allowing every feature to be designed, engineered and included within the structure from the outset. From in floor cleaning systems to champagne shelves, tanning ledges, integrated seating and infinity edges, each element is planned as part of one cohesive design.
This level of integration can only be achieved through true design intent and quality craftsmanship. It ensures the entire pool works as one refined, purposeful environment, shaped by architecture, site and lifestyle.

With a focus on design and environmental sustainability, we are proud to be Victoria’s first Climate Care Certified pool builder.
A Laguna Climate Care Certified pool features the latest in energy-efficient filtration, solar heating, LED lighting, and pool covers. These pools are self-cleaning, self-testing, and designed for minimal maintenance.
Our pools include mineral swim ozone-to-oxygen purification technology, providing softer, cleaner water that’s ideal for those with allergies or eczema. This technology lowers chlorine use, reduces the need for extra chemicals, extends equipment life, and enhances water clarity.
By using top-quality materials and the latest construction methods, we ensure that every Laguna pool is built to the highest standard.
