Marietta, GA - May 26, 2026 - Watershed Pools designs and builds complete backyard environments across Marietta and Cobb County, combining custom pools, spas, patios, hardscapes, outdoor kitchens, fire features, lighting, and shaded gathering areas. The company’s work reflects a growing demand for outdoor living spaces that feel intentional, polished, and practical for year-round enjoyment.
For 2026, Watershed Pools expects Marietta homeowners to continue prioritizing outdoor spaces that serve multiple purposes. Instead of treating a pool, patio, or kitchen as a separate project, homeowners are asking for cohesive backyard designs that support entertaining, dining, and everyday family use. This shift is influencing everything from layout planning and material selection to lighting placement and how water features connect with seating and cooking areas.
Among the leading 2026 trends, Watershed Pools is seeing increased interest in modern pool designs with clean lines, integrated spas, tanning ledges, covered patios, outdoor kitchens, fire-and-water features, low-maintenance materials, and smart lighting. Together, these elements turn a backyard into the kind of space that makes staying home feel like the better option.
Key luxury outdoor living trends for 2026 include:
-
Custom pools planned as the centerpiece of the backyard

Integrated spas, tanning ledges, and shallow lounging areas
