A pool house is a stand-alone structure that is typically built next to a swimming pool. It is designed to provide a space for swimmers to change, shower and store their belongings, as well as provide an area for relaxation and entertainment.
In architecture, a pool house can be used in a few ways:
1. As a functional space that complements the pool. It can include amenities such as a bathroom, kitchenette, lounge area, and storage for pool equipment.
2. As an extension of the main house, providing additional living space that can be used throughout the year. The pool house can be designed with all the amenities of a regular house, including bedrooms, bathrooms, and a full kitchen.
3. As a luxurious retreat or guest house. Some pool houses can be designed to include spa-like features such as a sauna, steam room, or hot tub. They can also be designed with bedrooms and bathrooms to create a private guest house for visitors.
Overall, a pool house is a versatile structure that can add value and functionality to any property. It can be designed in many styles and with different features to suit the needs of the homeowners.
