A well-designed Swimming Pool goes beyond aesthetics; it must respond to user needs and architectural context. Architect Can Çuhadar explains that he begins every design by identifying whether the pool will function as a sports area or a relaxation zone. From there, the design is shaped to harmonize with both architectural structure and landscaping—ensuring a result that is both functional and visually integrated.
“In pool design, I prioritize client expectations. A pool that merges seamlessly with the home’s architecture and the surrounding landscape is what I consider successful.”
Material quality in pool projects is crucial for both aesthetics and durability. Çuhadar notes that the Natural Series by Serapool Porselen delivers all three: visual appeal, strength, and surface integrity. Unlike conventional materials, where mismatches in color and texture can compromise the design, Serapool offers a wide range of color and size alternatives—ensuring consistency in architectural detailing.
“The Natural Series met all our expectations in terms of color, size, and detail. Our collaboration evolved into a true design partnership, enabling us to produce cohesive and Durable solutions.”
In a recent villa project in Çeşme, key selection criteria included hygiene, safety, and color harmony. Large Format Tiles reduced grout lines for Easy Maintenance, while Anti-slip Finish, Inner Trim, and Outer Trim ensured safety across pool surfaces. A rich color palette helped blend the pool seamlessly with its natural surroundings.
“Hygiene, safety, and color were our top priorities. Large formats helped us achieve both a cleaner look and easier maintenance.”
Looking to move away from traditional blue pool tones, Çuhadar selected the Olcay Mix series for its dynamic greens and natural gradients. The use of multiple tones brought depth and movement, while pairing it with Antique Grey created a soft, balanced contrast that allowed the pool’s surface to visually stand out.
“We wanted to break away from the usual blue tone. We selected four shades with vivid transitions, giving the pool a vibrant, yet harmonious character.”
Rather than using movable garden furniture, the villa project featured fixed porcelain seating surfaces. These offered practical seasonal usability, easy cleaning, and a cohesive aesthetic. The use of Scoth Inner Corner and Scoth Outer Corner pieces ensured both visual continuity and safety.
“In seasonal homes, fixed elements eliminate the hassle of storage and make the design more permanent. They offer safety and aesthetic unity.”
For Çuhadar, Serapool is more than a material supplier—it is a design partner. The Natural Series, with its wide variety of textures and tones, facilitates the realization of detailed and custom architectural solutions.
“With the Natural Series, Serapool supports our design process and enables us to implement refined details with ease.”
Çuhadar’s final message to investors and homeowners considering a Pool Renovation is clear: Opt for solutions that combine timeless aesthetics with long-term functionality. Choosing Porcelain Tiles that are Hygienic, Easy to Maintain, and Comfortable will provide lasting satisfaction.
“When building a pool, choose materials and designs that bring joy, serve your needs, and remain hygienic and timeless.”
