Owning a swimming pool might be a lifelong dream, but you might be worried that your backyard just doesn’t have the space. Fortunately, with the help of a skilled designer, even houses with undersized lawns can benefit from a stylish water feature that will provide hours of fun and relaxation.
How to Design Pools for Small Yards
1. Consider an Asymmetric Design
Asymmetrical designs are not only visually interesting, but they’re also easier to fit into cramped spaces. A triangular plunge pool can be a striking design element, especially when combined with an elevated deck and hardscaping.
While an asymmetrical pool may be small, you can create a sense of depth by using blue tile, which reflects the water. A shallow ledge around the edge for seating will also make the pool appear even deeper.
2. Install a Pool Directly Against a Wall

In-ground pools are typically accessible from all sides. However, putting a swimming pool directly in the middle of the yard may take more space than you have.
Instead, consider having one edge of the pool run right up against a wall or fence. This does mean giving up an entry point, but you can fit a larger swimming pool in your yard comfortably.
3. Install Water Jets
You might be interested in the exercise benefits of a swimming pool, which might make smaller designs seem unsuitable. While you can’t swim laps in a pool designed for small yards, water jets can provide the exercise you need. These innovative features create a current powerful enough to swim against.
