Spring is when everyone starts picturing how their pool area could look, not just how it works. Here are five directions we’re seeing more of this season — take what inspires you.
1. Fences You Barely Notice
Fine vertical cable lines are replacing chunky framing and solid panels, so the view to the pool and garden stays wide open from every angle.
2. Warmer, Softer Tones
Classic black and white are being joined by softer neutrals — think warm greys and muted bronze — that sit beautifully against timber decking and greenery. Our Colour Chart has the full range if a refresh is calling.
3. Indoors and Outdoors, Blurred Together
More homeowners are treating the pool deck as a true extension of the living space — matching flooring lines, consistent hardware finishes, and balustrades that don’t chop the view in half.
4. Mixing It Up
Timber decking with aluminium-framed cable balustrades is a favourite combo this season — warmth underfoot, low-maintenance performance at the fence line.
5. Genuinely Set-and-Forget
The biggest trend of all: people choosing finishes precisely because they never have to think about them again — self-tensioning cable, powder-coated aluminium, marine-grade steel, done.
