Gérard Gay : Swimming Pools with Soul...!
Haute-couture swimming pools !
Although made-to-measure swimming pools now flourish here and there and often feature breath-taking architectural fioritures, they still do not attain Gérard Gay's level of excellence. Because it's all a matter of dreams, of landscapes straight from nature so well done that it's hard to tell where nature ends and invention begins. In the end, we discover a harmonious whole in a setting that is both unreal and "real," calling into question the very notion of truth... Proof that design conquers all !
High quality at the service of dreams
Of course, the idea is not to design idyllic landscapes only to see them dissolve under the pressure of water, collapsing desperately into a swampy ruin. So that the dream will live on, Gérard Gay builds on armatures of reinforced concrete and uses noble, wear-resistant materials. The Gay technique ? Cement for the walls, bottoms and beaches are poured in one operation, thus ensuring impeccable solidity, regularity and water-tightness. The final coating in tinted sand resin covered with a transparent resin makes the water area look like a beach covered with fine sand. The illusion is completed by jetty stone and a cascade of water over rock formations with an overflow ensuring that the pool remains perfectly clean.
