The swimming pool is a sports and recreation area that is carried out together, landscape arrangement in the pool area, in addition to its aesthetic function, also needs to pay attention to its function. In this design, I apply a concept that emphasizes aesthetics and function, outdoor areas in the tropics really need shade and coolness in the activity area.
