What is the Best Shape for a Swimming Pool?

Ideally, the swimming pool should compliment the home. For example, if you have a very formal, symmetrical home, a classically shaped swimming pool such as rectangular, circular, etc. would probably work best. Swimming pools with clean lines compliment contemporary homes. A lap pool is a good example. A more casual swimming pool, such as a free form or lagoon style works well with a more casual home. Ultimately, you should build whatever swimming pool you like best. You can tie the two together thru landscaping and furniture.
