# 1INSPIRATION GUIDE

This guide is brimming over with bright ideas dreamed up by pioneering minds, and aims to provide inspiration for the outstanding pool and spa projects of tomorrow.

We live in an era of practical innovation, where pools and spas are adapted to each situation. These wellness products can now be completely controlled by their owners, adopting digital technologies to meet every need while making management effortless for the user. The 2.0 era is drawing this market in its wake, with new expectations focusing on connected pools and spas allowing all functions to be managed remotely by digital means.

Pools and spas are becoming genuine extensions to the home, and this guide presents a selection of leading-edge installations that reflect this trend. Design, discretion and harmonious integration are the watchwords for these projects, which adopt colours and materials inspired by nature to blend into their surroundings. Lighting plays an integral role, brightening up walls with crystals, embellishing liners with more economical and more sustainable light fittings, enhancing the colours of the water and making it sparkle.

Current trends reflect today’s more sustainable approach to consumption, placing a focus on energy savings in the face of growing awareness of the need for more environmentally responsible behaviour. The primary purpose of pools is moving away from sports and leisure and towards comfort and well-being. Pools and spas are highly attractive wellness products offering a haven in which to relax, unwind and take a well-deserved break from the stress of everyday life.

Dive into this first version of our inspiration guide to find out what will be setting the trends in the pool and spa world in the next few years, and pick up the second version during Piscine Global from 15 to 18 November 2016.
