The Million Dollar Pool Design Challenge 2024 Scenario:



The clients have been working hard for years and have decided to buy a second home in the hills of Tennessee.  Although they would have preferred to build a new home, an existing home came to the market that they couldn't pass up.  With great bones to the house and a fantastic view from the lot, which was most important, they have moved forward with a full renovation of the home.  The home renovation is complete but leaves a lot to be desired on the outside.  Although there was an existing pool on site, the clients have chosen to do a full tear out and rebuild as the pool area is one of the most important parts of their vision.  With this being the clients second home, they will not be there full time to maintain the pool but are looking for something perfect for the space.  They hope to host family events multiple times of the year and to eventually pass it down to their kids to make their own memories in.  They have 3 kids of their own (age 34, 30, and 25).  They also have 4 grandkids (age 7, 4, and 2).  The husband is an ex athlete who loves outdoor activities such as kayaking.  He is more into the native environment and boulders and can always be found on a golf course.  The wife, however, prefers the clean lines and modern organic feel that she has seen at several of the resort spas on their travels.  Although they love entertaining, their average gathering would never have more than 20-25 people so the space should be adequate, but not overwhelming.
