Superior Pool Interiors Are Cost Effective

An Interesting Article in Pool+Spa Review:

The installation of a recreational or therapeutic pool is a big investment for a community, health, commercial or domestic consumer. The investment has to be sound in that it will provide years of service for its intended function with minimal running and maintenance costs. The right choices made at the time of design and construction will pay big dividends in the overall cost to maintain the pool over its design life. 

Given in-ground concrete pools should have a life span of more than a few decades or longer, you should plan on the pool interior lasting just as long, especially given its exposure to varying degrees of water balance and chemical concentrations. 

The consumer is presented with many options when having a pool installed and it is important to recognise that some pool interiors may have significant repercussions on the economic life of the structure. Some interiors have relatively short lie spans and require renovation sooner than you would like; some are porches and susceptible to chemical attack or staining and require more attention to water chemistry than normal; some can be easily damaged resulting in costly repairs; or some are just plain hard to look after and require a lot more attention than others.

Wow the Brilliance!

Earth Cycles by the artist Sarrita King & Mosaicist Don Macdonald

30 000 hand-cut mosaics which weighs 51kg

A Truly Talented Mosaicist

Email received from Don Macdonald, on this beautiful mosaic mural.

"The Design House, One Tree Group commissioned Symmetry Mosaics to bring the stunning beauty of Sarrita King’s urban Australian Aboriginal style into the medium of mosaics.  It is 3.0m long, 1.0m high and weighs just 51kg with over 30,000 hand-cut 10x10mm Bisazza glass mosaics.  Up close the detail in the artwork is self evident and at distance the piece appears to be a painting, but in the sunlight, the subtle shade variations become more obvious and it gives the artwork life and a three dimensional perspective.  It is a micro mosaic in a macro application making it a truly fine-art piece.

Setting aside the workmanship and beauty of the design, what is so unique about this artwork is its compelling message.  It tells a timeless story of ‘connectedness’ from the original inhabitants of this ancient land for our modern world. The centre of each of the circles represents each of us and how we are surrounded by family and friends, experiences and events and each of these people and happenings blend into other people’s families and events.  As you step away from one circle and see how all the others circles are interlinked you begin to understand how all things are connected.  And then, you see how the river of life flows through all of our lives and experiences, like the life bringing waters of a meandering river in the outback.

This piece is our first promotional artwork and is the beginning of a creative collaboration between One Tree Group and Symmetry Mosaics. I’ll keep you posted with our other very exciting projects as they are completed.
