Pool shape
Grecian
Cut corners, octagonal poise — formal without curves
The Grecian pool clips the rectangle's corners at 45°, giving an octagonal outline that reads formal and deliberate without a single curve. It keeps nearly all the rectangle's swim length, and the angled corners make elegant seats for steps, benches or planters at the pool's edge.
Strengths
- Formal geometry with straight-cut simplicity
- Nearly a rectangle's swim length and floor area
- Angled corners suit corner steps and benches
- Straight segments keep tiling simple
Trade-offs
- Eight wall angles mean more formwork joints
- Corner cuts reduce floor space slightly
- Covers need custom corner shaping
