We
knew we wanted our debut on HGTV to be more than just pretty pictures
set to pretty music. That's why we came up with an architectural theme
to help us chose our Spectacular Pools and tell their unique stories in
this one hour, prime time special. Former After Today show host and television
personality, Asha Blake, hosts and narrates this luscious look at 13 differently
fascinating swimming pools, all architectural wonders in landscape design
and detail. Each pool features an underwater photography sequence that
highlights that pool's unique features as seen from a swimmer's point
of view. Above the surface, we talked with designers about their decisions,
grilled gardeners about their gardens and quizzed historians about who
hast swam here before us. We even managed to land an exclusive underwater
shoot in the Neptune Pool at Hearst Castle. We explored the optical illusion
of the infinity edge pool, saw how a two car garage became a covered 'swimming
room' and went 'au natural' into two pools that looked like they were
carved right out of nature. Whew, that's a lot of water! Would someone
hand us a towel? Locations include, San Diego, San Simeon, Sonoma, Malibu
and Montecito California.
