Durstone has developed a comprehensive ceramic system that integrates swimming pool linings, coping, outdoor paving, drainage solutions and special pieces within a single architectural language, ensuring visual continuity and consistency throughout the project. Conceived to meet the needs of architects and designers, the system combines design, functionality and technical solutions for every type of swimming pool.
Each pool presents different construction requirements. Skimmer, infinity and overflow pools demand specific solutions for water management, coping, drainage and transitions with surrounding paving. Durstone develops ceramic solutions tailored to each of these pool types, allowing all technical elements to be seamlessly integrated without compromising the project’s visual continuity.
Durstone’s system includes a wide range of formats that make it possible to maintain the same material language from the inside of the pool to the surrounding outdoor spaces.
The range includes ceramic pool tiles in a 20-by-20-cm format, alongside 60-by-120-, 90-by-90-, 120-by-120-, and large-format 120-by-280-cm porcelain slabs, as well as 20 mm-thick outdoor porcelain pavers. The system is completed with a straight extruded step measuring 33 by 120 by 3 cm, a technical piece specifically developed to solve coping, level changes and transitions while providing outstanding strength and dimensional stability. It also features an extensive catalogue of special pieces that ensures precise installation and visual continuity in every detail.
The color of the water depends not only on the sky or the pool’s depth, but also on the ceramic finish selected. Light shades create bright, crystal-clear water; sand and earth tones produce a warmer, more natural appearance; while greens, grays and blues enhance the sense of depth and evoke Mediterranean or tropical landscapes.
Thanks to Durstone’s wide variety of collections, colors and finishes, architects and designers can adapt the appearance of the water to the language of each project, using ceramic surfaces as a design tool capable of transforming the atmosphere of the pool and its relationship with both architecture and landscape.
Durstone also offers solutions that broaden the project’s compositional possibilities. Among them is Roda, a circular piece measuring 60 by 60 by 2 cm designed for installation over concrete, grass or gravel, making it possible to create pathways, walkways and transition areas with a more organic geometry. It provides a distinctive design resource for integrating gardens, terraces and pool areas within the same architectural language.
The system is completed by the Lineal, Slot and Mara ceramic drainage grates, designed to be finished in the same material as the paving, allowing drainage to be resolved with maximum discretion. In this way, even technical elements contribute to maintaining the project’s visual continuity, demonstrating that the quality of a swimming pool depends not only on the materials used, but also on how every detail is integrated into the overall architectural design.
