This poolside shelter offers several benefits in one space:

The poolside is designed to block the main wind direction so the pool area can be used further into shoulder seasons.

Food and beverage are now close at hand, saving trips to the kitchen.

Outdoor theatre, lighting and sound installed in the poolside help to extend use of the pool area into evenings.

Placement helps to limit views to neighbouring property and reduces sound from nearby roads.

A single slope roof, as in this poolside, are uncomplicated, contemporary and can work well, even with less common layouts, like the trapezoid in this case.

The design of the poolside nicely ties in with the timbers used to build the porch area of the main house.
