Ranging from beautifully landscaped backyards to dramatic beaches and tropical paradise surroundings the stunning pool locales show creative examples of pools as architecture and organic forms. In the mix are seductive pools owned by such celebrities as Cher and Dianne Keaton and leading designers Bunny Williams and Carolyne Roehm as well as masterpieces by famed architects Frank Lloyd Wright Richard Neutra and Luis Barragán. Splash concludes with a section on poolside elements from tiled steps patterned surfaces and Jacuzzis to pool houses with outdoor showers landscaping furnishings and much more. Every example evokes the enduring and irresistible appeal of the swimming pool.
