The Tasman Terrace Pool — Custom Climate Care Concrete Pool, Nelson
Project Category: Residential/Residential landscaping/Outdoor living/Bungalow
Year of completion: 2025
Aquanort Pools proudly presents The Tasman Terrace Pool, a bespoke 10m x 4m custom concrete pool designed to elevate a coastal Nelson property into a refined, sustainable outdoor retreat. Built to Climate Care Certified standards, this project blends architectural precision, premium materials, and advanced energy‑efficient technology to create a modern pool environment that enhances both lifestyle and landscape.
With its clean rectangular form, Diamond Brite Oyster Quartz interior, and elegant ceramic tile detailing, the pool delivers a timeless aesthetic that complements the home’s elevated ocean outlook. This project demonstrates how thoughtful design and sustainable construction can transform a challenging site into a high‑performing, visually striking outdoor sanctuary.
Designed for Coastal Living
Positioned to maximise views across Tasman Bay, the pool forms the centrepiece of a contemporary outdoor living space. The 10m length provides generous swimming room, while the 1.3m–1.6m depth offers versatility for families, fitness, and relaxation. Surrounding paving and carefully aligned architectural lines create a seamless connection between the pool, home, and outdoor entertaining areas.
The ceramic waterline tile band and tiled steps add crisp definition and durability, while the neutral paving palette frames the shimmering Oyster Quartz finish, allowing the water to become the hero of the space.
Climate Care Certified Technology
This project incorporates a full Climate Care Package, ensuring reduced energy use, lower running costs, and long‑term sustainability. Equipment includes:
- Electroheat ECOVS 27kW heat pump for efficient year‑round heating
- Naked Freshwater System with pH controller for low‑chemical, gentle swimming
- Hydrostorm 100 Eco‑V pump
- Supastream 100

Through careful planning, precise excavation, and coordinated equipment installation, Aquanort Pools successfully delivered a structurally sound, high‑performance concrete pool without compromising the surrounding landscape.
The result is a meticulously crafted pool environment that integrates seamlessly with the home’s architecture and coastal setting.
