Now this is a fascinating idea. Not that it is a new idea since we can assume chemical-byproduct free water existed before we industrialized everything around it. A natural pool is the only way an eco-thinker can do any green swimming without having a beach handy, that is if beaches were waste free… These look very relaxing and I would love to try one out. You can find some truly impressive designs over at Woodhouse Natural Pools. The outdoor ambient sounds on the homepage are quite serene. I am still listening to it as I write.

Thanks Michael d’Estries at GroovyGreen for the great find!

Natural Swimming Pool Association logoFor those of us in the U.S., a quick search led me to Total Habitat based in Bonner Springs, KS, says not to be fooled by installers unless certified by the Natural Swimming Pool Association, and sport this logo.

Here are a few pics from their site of their gorgeous work.

So this should give you something to think about when your skin is absorbing those toxic chemicals used to treat conventional swimming pools.
