Horsley Townsend - architects specialising in swimming pool design in Hampshire

We are an established architecture practice with extensive experience in designing unique swimming pools. Installing an indoor swimming pool offers a superb way to enhance your lifestyle; making the perfect addition to your home. Thanks to our wide ranging experience, we understand how to make the most of the space within a property, whether this is through a basement conversion, for example, an extension or detached pool building.

Unique swimming pool design

Thanks to our wide-ranging experience in indoor pool design, we have developed a tried and tested approach which begins with an in-depth consultation. This initial consultation is an important opportunity for us to explore your aspirations and ideas, whilst paying close consideration to the opportunities available. We’ll also discuss with you any potential constraints which may apply to your property, such as listed building status, for example. Following our initial consultation, we’ll create a project brief, designed to meet your requirements and aspirations.

 

When it comes to swimming pool installation, a range of options can be available. This means that you don’t necessarily have to be constrained by your home’s location or the size of its footprint. Some of our recent projects have included the design and construction of garden pool buildings, swimming pools housed in purpose-built extensions and basement pools.

Swimming pools designed in Hampshire and surrounding areas

Our expertise covers swimming pool design in a wide range of locations including Conservation Areas, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, National Parks and buildings with listed status. Although swimming pool construction in areas such as these can seem like a challenge, we have experience necessary to seek appropriate advice to ensure the completed project exceeds your expectations, whilst also sitting comfortably within the surrounding environment.

 

Once the design and planning stages are complete, we will coordinate surveyors and other consultants who may be required. During this stage, we will source several competitive tenders from specialist swimming pool builders. Once your project is underway, we’ll carry out regular site inspections.
