About the project

Nothing exudes luxury quite like this. Exquisitely positioned on the rooftop of a stunning architecturally designed Christopher Doyle South Yarra residence, this out-of-ground Laguna rooftop plunge pool is decadent and inviting.

Navigating a compact and challenging site, we created a masterfully crafted raised Laguna plunge pool with an alluring acrylic side window, affording guests the opportunity to enjoy the tranquillity of the water, without the need for a pool fence or pool entry steps.

Delicately framed by lush greenery, a private sanctuary is established, cocooning guests from the apartments that surround the home.  

Year-round usability is achieved with the inclusion of both solar and gas heating, and automated in-floor cleaning that eliminates time-consuming maintenance and allows the owners to enjoy their pool without interruption. The inspired inclusion of an integrated ledge within the pool invites further relaxation and enjoyment while taking a dip. Lastly, a Mineral Ozone purification system that combines the benefits of magnesium-rich Dead Sea minerals reduces chlorine levels by up to 80 percent, further enhancing the swim experience.

Finished with unrivalled precision in a fully-tiled glass mosaic, the owners were delighted to have had their vision come to life – adding a priceless feature to their inner-city lifestyle and sophisticated architectural home.
