What inspired us to give you a truly unique backyard experience to entertain your guests?

Houzz and Realtor.com attribute the origin of the sunken living room to Bruce Goff, a Kansas born architect who designed a house for his teacher in 1927. Ranch style homes that were popular after World War II featured sunken living rooms that gave houses a distinctive look while giving the appearance of a higher ceiling and thus a larger living space.

Maybe you’ve never thought about fiberglass pools having sunken living areas. We’re not surprised. We took our inspiration from resorts around the world, like those in Italy, Hawaii, and New Zealand, then looked for ways to make it work in a backyard setting.

 

So you might be wondering, is a sunken living room fiberglass pool right for you?  Here are a few reasons it might be: 

  1. You like being first. You always have the best and shiniest new toys.
  2. Like Queen, you want it all. With the sunken living area fiberglass pool, you don’t get just a pool, you get so much more! You can choose a sunken living area that creates resort-like experiences like a swim-up bar, a conversation or dining area, or a putting green for the ultimate in entertainment. If your yard is big, you have even more room for other landscaping features. If your yard is not so big, it’s a creative way to incorporate a lot of options in a small space.
  3. You crave an oasis of tranquility. If relaxation is what you’re after, order your sunken living room fiberglass pool with a built-in spa, instead. Think of the bliss of moving back and forth between the warm, bubbling water of your spa and the cool, refreshing, crystal clear water of your pool.

Yeah, at Thursday Pools, we like to break it down like that. After all, having a fiberglass pool in your backyard should be all about getting your weekend started early. So let’s take a look at each of the amazing ways you can enjoy and customize your sunken living area fiberglass pool. 

 

Cortona gives you plenty of swimming space. sunken living area fiberglass pool

Getting into the pool is easy with walk-in steps that ease you into the water. Separate steps leading into the sunken living area will help your friends who want to stay dry avoid your friends who are overzealous about splashing around. There’s plenty of room for both! The dimensions of the pool are16’x40’x6’.  You’ll have some wide-open swim lanes with a designated area for entertainment and conversations.

 

 

Create a conversation space or an intimate setting for a memorable dinner with friends.

From picking your tabletop to adding custom tile and accessories, you can create a space that reminds you of a nice Bahama breeze or a cabana beachfront in Belize.

 

The empty-nesters in the group might like Cortona’s swim-up bar.

Obviously, we’re not looking for a Daytona Spring Break experience here, but something that responsible adults can enjoy with a group of close friends or neighbors. Your own swim-up bar may remind you of that great honeymoon from years ago or that all-inclusive get-away that came at just the right time in your life. Thursday Pools does not advocate or encourage the excessive use of alcoholic beverages while enjoying your pool. Please drink responsibly and with moderation.
