In a perfect marriage of minimalist design and lakefront luxury, Aviva Pools proudly presents the February 2025 Pool of the Month: The Intrigue 30′ masterpiece in Exuma Silver installed by Aquamarine Pools of Houston. This stunning waterfront installation along Lake Livingston showcases how thoughtful design and expert execution can create a space that’s both visually striking and functionally perfect. The project exemplifies how strategic planning can create an outdoor retreat that enhances its natural surroundings while providing the ideal gathering space for family enjoyment.
LAKESIDE LUXURY: meets functional design
This project represents the pinnacle of coordination and execution, with Brad Larkin of Aquamarine Pools overseeing the meticulous installation. The team’s expertise allowed for perfect integration of the pool into the property’s overall aesthetic, completing their portion in roughly two weeks and establishing a foundation for the complementary elements that would follow.

PRACTICAL FEATURES: with sophisticated style
The installation features three feet of concrete surrounding the pool, which was Aquamarine Pools’ complete scope of work for this project. The homeowners engaged separate vendors for the landscaping, artificial turf, concrete pavers and other appointments that complement the pool area. This collaborative approach resulted in an innovative combination of materials that isn’t just aesthetically pleasing. It also offers excellent drainage solutions for the pool.
While the pool’s design is intentionally uncomplicated, it doesn’t lack sophistication. The Exuma Silver finish creates a striking contrast against the surrounding concrete. Additionally. multi-color LED lighting enhances the evening ambiance. The saltwater chlorination system and heating capabilities ensure the pool remains enjoyable throughout the changing seasons.
EXPERIENCE MATTERS: with proven results
As the largest fiberglass pool dealer in the United States, Aquamarine Pools (also known as Aqua Pools) brings unmatched expertise to their installations. Their team installs up to 2,000 pools annually, demonstrating remarkable efficiency and craftsmanship across their projects.
The philosophy behind their success is simple, as Larkin put it: “It’s fun to sell fun.” This February 2025 Pool of the Month is a testament to how Aquamarine Pools and Aviva Pools partner beautifully to transform outdoor spaces into lasting sources of enjoyment and family connection.
The Intrigue combines the best of modern design to create a complete outdoor living experience. It features a refreshing splash pad alongside a luxurious built-in spa, complemented by a full-length bench that borders a spacious swimming area. This thoughtfully designed paradise is crafted specifically for families to enjoy.

FAMILY GATHERING: spaces that connect
The homeowners envisioned this space primarily as a gathering place for family. The clean lines and elegant simplicity of the Intrigue 30′ perfectly suit this purpose, creating a welcoming environment without overwhelming the natural lakeside setting.
What made this project particularly smooth, according to Larkin, was the advantage of working with a fresh construction palette. With the house in early construction phases, the Aquamarine team had ample space to maneuver and execute their installation without the typical constraints of an established property.
