3D Design and Approval – See Your Dream Pool Before We Build It

At Signature Outdoor Design, we believe the best way to ensure your pool turns out exactly how you imagine is to see it before we build it. After the initial consultation, we move into Step 2: 3D Design and Approval.

With advanced 3D rendering technology, we create a fully interactive model of your custom gunite pool and outdoor living space, so you know exactly what to expect before construction begins.

Why 3D Design Matters in North Texas

Visualize Before You Build

Most families can picture a sparkling pool in their minds, yet they struggle to translate that vision into real-world dimensions. Our interactive 3D pool renderings solve this problem by:

• Dropping a life-size model into your actual yard using your homes survey and precise property measurements

• Previewing advanced features—such as Baja tanning ledges, raised spas with spillways, natural stone waterfalls, fire bowls, and swim-up bars—at the exact scale they will exist on installation day

• Demonstrating traffic flow between the pool, outdoor kitchen, shaded pergola, and existing play areas

• Displaying how lighting schemes transform your space from daytime fun zone to an atmospheric evening oasis

By the end of your design preview, your family will know exactly how deep the shallow end is, whether the waterline tile matches your travertine coping, and how many guests can lounge on the sun shelf at once. That clarity empowers you to approve the project with total confidence.

Reviewing and Approving Your Design

Once the design is ready, we’ll meet virtually or in person to:

• Review your entire outdoor space in 3D

• Explore the design from multiple angles

• View the project in different lighting conditions (day, evening, night)

• Make adjustments as needed (e.g., repositioning a spa or selecting different materials)

Our approval process ensures you’re completely satisfied before we move forward with permits and construction.

The Benefits of 3D Design for Gunite Pools

Maximizing Customization

Unlike fiberglass or vinyl pools, gunite pools offer total flexibility in shape, depth, and features. The 3D design phase helps you:

• Fine-tune custom shapes and unique features

• Test out different finishes and colors

• Visualize how waterfalls, spas, or fire bowls integrate with the pool

Because gunite pool construction is fully customizable, seeing the design beforehand ensures every detail meets your expectations.

Frequently Asked Questions About 3D Pool Design

How long does the 3D design process take?

Typically, we deliver your custom 3D design within 1-2 weeks after the initial consultation, depending on the complexity of your project.

Can I make changes after reviewing the 3D design?

Absolutely! This is the perfect time to make adjustments—whether it’s the shape of the pool, placement of features, or material selections—before moving forward to permitting and construction.

Does the 3D design include my entire backyard?

Yes! We design the full outdoor space, including landscaping, patios, pergolas, or outdoor kitchens, so you get a clear picture of the entire project.

Is there an extra cost for the 3D design?

The 3D design process is included in your project scope. It’s an essential part of making sure your dream pool and backyard come to life exactly how you envision.
