Santa Fe Custom Pool Design

Custom Pool Design for Santa Fe

We are Modern Pools, an award-winning custom pool design studio in Austin, Texas. We have designed pools since 1999. We do not have an office or a crew in Santa Fe, and we are honest about that. What we offer is custom pool design.

We create your pool design from our Austin studio and work with your local Santa Fe builder for construction. This lets you get a thoughtful, detailed design while a trusted local team does the building.

Designing for Santa Fe

Santa Fe sits high in the desert at about 7,000 feet. The air is thin, the sun is strong, and the nights get cold. In winter, water can freeze, so a Santa Fe pool needs smart freeze planning for pipes, spas, and water features. We design for these real conditions, not for a mild climate.

Water is precious in the high desert. We plan water-wise designs that limit splash and loss, and we can add covers to slow evaporation. We also shape the pool to fit the land, from the hills around Tesuque to the wide lots at Las Campanas.

Many Santa Fe homes use adobe and Pueblo Revival style, with warm earth tones and soft, rounded shapes. We match your pool to that look, using colors and materials that feel at home in the desert. We also frame views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains so your pool feels part of the land.

How We Work From Austin

We start by learning your site. You share photos, measurements, and details about your lot, and we study the slope, sun, and views. Then we build your pool in 3D so you can see it from every angle before anything is built.

For special projects, we travel to Santa Fe to walk the land in person. Seeing the site helps us plan grade, drainage, and mountain views the right way.

When the design is set, we hand clear plans to your local Santa Fe builder. We can stay in touch with your builder during construction to answer questions and protect the design.

What We Design

We design pools that fit the desert palette. That includes natural, freeform shapes that flow with the land and clean geometric pools that match modern adobe homes. See our freeform pools for natural styles.

We also design spas and warm plunge areas that feel good on cold high desert nights. Add water features like sheer walls or quiet spillways to bring gentle sound and movement to your yard.

A pool is part of a larger space. We plan outdoor living areas with shade, seating, and fire, so your yard works well in strong sun and cool evenings.

Why Santa Fe Homeowners Choose Us

Homeowners choose us for careful design and honest work. We plan for real Santa Fe conditions like altitude, freeze, and water limits, and we design pools that suit adobe and Pueblo Revival homes.

You get a detailed 3D design you can trust, plus plans your local builder can follow with confidence. That mix gives you great design and steady local construction.
