A custom pool creates the perfect gathering spot for making memories. A spacious pool deck provides room for lounging between swimming sessions. Ambient lighting and water features elevate your space and turn a recreational space into an inviting atmosphere for entertaining guests of all ages and for all kinds of events.
Swimming provides a low-impact full-body workout suitable for all fitness levels. Water reduces joint stress while building strength and endurance. Add dedicated lap lanes allows for a serious workout and a few spa jets for therapeutic massage. The combination of exercise options and relaxation will contribute to better mental and physical health for everyone in your household.
Having your own custom pool to retreat to whenever you need stress relief is the ultimate form of self-care. Bubbling fountains create an instantly tranquil vibe with their soothing sounds. Combined with the right selection of outdoor furniture and landscaping, you can create a resort-like atmosphere in your backyard.

Clark Outdoor Designs has completed inground pool projects in Frisco, TX; in communities like Starwood, Richwood, The Grove, and others.
In Frisco, luxury properties can sprawl across expansive estates or tuck neatly into convenient neighborhoods and we’ve created unique custom pool designs in many of them already.
Check out samples of the many inground pools we’ve built in the Frisco area in our gallery of work.
Infinity edge pools create the illusion of water extending to the horizon. It’s a stunning architectural feature that makes your pool blend seamlessly into surrounding landscapes or showcase breathtaking views.
Custom pools with vanishing edges create an upscale, luxury experience right in your own yard. And the gentle sound of cascading water adds a soothing audio element to enhances your outdoor relaxation.
An integrated spa offers year-round enjoyment throughout the changing seasons. Our designers expertly blend your spa with your pool through elegant spillover features, creating both auto and visual features you’ll enjoy. You’ll appreciate the convenience of a single system that manages both your pool and your spa.
Add movement, sound, and elegance to your pool area with unique water features like natural rock waterfalls and modern sheet falls. Water features often become the centerpiece of the spaces that host them.
Custom bubblers, deck jets, and other audible water features add ambiance that helps create that resort-like atmosphere that every homeowner strives to recreate.
LED lighting systems feature fun color-changing options, allowing you to set the perfect mood for any occasion. Placing them strategically, you can highlight key water features, steps, and depth changes for both safety and aesthetic effect. And, thanks to smart lighting solutions, all of this can be controlled from an app on your phone.
Bring resort-style luxury to your Frisco home with a custom swim-up bar that lets you and your guests enjoy refreshments without leaving the water. Add comfortable, submerged seating and extra-durable countertops to withstand pool chemicals and weather.
Your swim-up bar can also seamlessly connect with your outdoor kitchen, creating the ultimate entertainment zone that will make your home the favorite gathering spot in the neighborhood.
Custom fire features like fire bowls mounted on columns or walls add dramatic flair while providing gentle, flickering illumination for evening swims. Custom fire pits positioned near your pool create the perfect gathering spot for relaxing and warming after a swim. Fire features are particularly valuable during the cooler months, allowing you to enjoy your outdoor space even when temperatures drop.
Control every aspect of your Frisco custom pool with automated systems: adjust water temperature, lighting, water features, and cleaning cycles -all from your mobile device (and from anywhere).
Smart pool systems can monitor chemical levels and water quality, so your pool is always ready for use. Smart automation also improves energy efficiency by optimizing heating schedules and equipment operation based on actual usage patterns instead of a simple on/off switch.
Tanning ledges provide the perfect spot to cool off while still soaking up the Texas sun, helping you stay refreshed while you get that golden glow.
And beach entries create a gradual slope into your pool, mimicking the shoreline experience and providing safer access for children and older adults. Add umbrella sleeves, bubblers, or specialized seating to enhance this ideal relaxation zone.

“We called Clark Outdoor Designs and Bailey came out to give us an estimate. Did some research and looked at some of his teams work and knew they were going to be the ones for the job. Two days and they were done. Such attention to detail and the finished product is amazing. Only wish I would have chosen them for the fence as well.”

“We had a good experience with Clark Outdoor Designs. They provided computer images of what the final result would look like – we have worked with several larger contractors and no one has ever provided renderings like that so it made a difference in our choice. He was patient in answering our questions and re-working the estimate until we landed on exactly what we wanted.”
