RivieraPool wins Golden Wave Award 2015

Geeste/Dalum, April 02, 2015 – In October 2013, RivieraPool, one of the leading manufacturers of prefabricated swimming pools in Germany, launched the first shallow water zone for prefabricated swimming pools on the market. The innovative concept of the water terrace, which extends the pool area by a lounge zone in and near the water, convinced the jurors during the presentation of the Golden Wave Award 2015: The main prize in the category swimming pools went to RivieraPool.

In fact, the WetLounge® is a two-meter extension of the pool. In terms of design, however, the 15-centimeter-deep shallow water zone creates a completely new living space: An outdoor living area with sitting or lounging furniture in shallow water. In the evening, a fire bowl in the shallow water and atmospheric LED lighting create a cozy lagoon flair.

"The developers were primarily concerned with one thing: the emotional staging of the theme 'living by the water'", said Peter Lang from Fachschriften Verlag, summing up the reasons for the award in his laudatory speech during the festive award ceremony in Stuttgart. "RivieraPool knows how to use the WetLounge to place the pool theme in a larger context. Aspects of garden and landscaping are integrated just as much as the theme of homing, i.e. the trend to design one's own home as the social center of life where one meets and celebrates with friends."

"The Golden Wave award is a great honor for us," explains Uwe Rengers, Marketing Manager at RivieraPool, "because it shows that our further development has captured the spirit of the times: The WetLounge creates a space where relaxation and fitness experience a new dimension."

Since 2005, Europe's largest pool and spa magazine "Schwimmbad + Sauna" has been presenting the Golden Wave Award every two years to honor pioneering developments in the swimming pool and sauna industry. Two other RivieraPool swimming pools had already been recognized with the innovation prize in previous years: In 2007, the jury honored the innovative "Modena Swim and Fun" pool concept from RivieraPool, which is specifically aimed at small gardens. The Golden Wave Award 2011 honored the D-Line by RivieraPool for naturally staged water landscapes made of pool and streams.
