1. Budapests Gellert Baths
2. Underground Pool in Utah
This beautiful geothermal underground pool is in the homestead resort in Utah. Sun shine through a central hole in the dome shaped roof, like the Pantheon in Rome.3. Inverse pool
At Elmanco, a photo by Sanaa showing a family that appear to be underwater. The effect is created by having a glass bottom pool on top of the pool itself.4. Worlds Deepest Pool
The pool at the Nemo 33 recreational diving center in Belgium, is over 100 ft deep, making in the worlds deepest recreational pool.5. Four Seasons Resort Bali
More of a pond than a pool, this photo shows it side on. As a piece of architectural narrative, the Bali Four Seasons pool entry is exceptional. A wooden bridge takes you over a chasm to an infinity pool with the jungle wrapping around the background, the pool floating 50 feet above it.
The entrance to the hotel is through a slit in the pool to the lobby underneath and is worth of a James Bond movie set.6. Glass Bottom Pool Vancouver
This is a classic case of an ambitious architectural gesture with utterly pedestrian execution. a glass swimming pool over an entrance is a spectacular thing, unfortunately the surrounding structure looks like a freeway overpass.7. Angkor Wat 1000 year old pool
Few places are as exotic and mysterious as Cambodias Angkor Wat. Show here is the central pool.8. Rooftop pool by OMA
This pool by Rem Koolhaas OMA is on the outskirts of Paris9. The Glass Pool Inn
A lovely quirky Vegas landmark that was recently demolished. The glass pool in had portals that could be seen from the road.10. Rooftop pool New York
You can order prints of this great picture of 4 boys from the Madison Square Boys Club, form the National Archives. They are in a rowing boat on the roof of a flooded building in what looks like Queens, but could possibly be the North End of Brooklyn.
Anyway this flooded rooftop counts as a cool pool, in our opinion.11. Overhanging glass pool Singapore
The Gallery Evason hotel in Singapore has an impressive glass sided pool which is cantilevered out several floors above street level.
The hotel was designed by Dutch architects, Mecanoo.12. Lubetkin Penguin Pool
Perhaps the most famous of all pools, architecturally was designed not for humans, but for penguins.
Lubetkin was one of a cluster of modernist architects working in Britain, between the wars. he produced the penguin pool for London Zoo in 1934. It consists of two self supporting interlocked spiral ramps, which descent into an oval modernist pool.13. Mini Cooper Stretch limo
Putting a swimming pool in a stretch limo is the kind of ridiculousness that is old hat - unless its a stretch mini, which is silly ridiculous and slightly newer hat.
