Book Description

From the hills of Hollywood to the lagoons of the Caribbean, from European jacuzzis to Asian tidal pools, from the Australian outback to America's Eastern seaboard, here are 45 of the world's most spectacular swimming pools and gardens.

Published in an oversized format to best showcase more than 400 stunning color photographs, Dream Pools & Gardens features nature-inspired shapes, classical designs, and modern pools where the water appears to tumble off the end of the earth.

An engaging text details the basic design form of each project, highlighting their innovative features and imaginative details, including the surrounding gardens and landscaping, which are often as glorious as the pool itself.

Perfect for homeowners searching for design ideas and interior designers looking for fresh inspiration, Dream Pools & Gardens is both a useful tool and a gorgeous wish book.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars I'm a Picture Person.......2000-05-07

Well, I am totally a picture person, and I found this book to be astonishing, I loved almost every pool I saw, there was some gardening pictures, but not that many, but i was personally looking for pools, that's probably why they titled it "POOLS and gardens". But if you love pictures and seeing other people's interpretations of beautiful scenery and living dreams, then i assure you that you will love this book!

3 out of 5 stars Fascinating surreal images coupled with lack of substance.......2000-03-19

Dream Pools and Gardens does not supply any intelligible narrative and merely bombards the mind with image after image of mind-boggling pools. Was that the book's original purpose and goal? I certainly hope so.

2 out of 5 stars Disappointing.......1999-07-22

I eagerly awaited the arrival of this book. Unfortunately, I found it to have little garden information, pictures which lacked good perspective and a narrative which was weakly written and included only sketchy details. "Reflections on Pools" is a much better book.
