Kidney Shape Pools

Kidney Shaped Inground Pools

Kidney Shaped Pools

Kidney-shaped pools are popular freeform pools that are rounded on each end, curving inward along one side. Kidney-shaped pools offer a sleek, contemporary feel and their asymmetrical shape fits easily into smaller spaces without sacrificing style.

  • Design Benefits: Modern kidney-shaped pools blend the functionality of a traditional lap pool, with the sleek styling of a freeform pool
  • Common Features: Kidney-shaped pools can include swim up seating, and slip resistant steps
  • Considerations: Kidney-shaped swimming pool designs include flexible sizes, which can be great for smaller yards
