Custom Pool Plans and Outdoor Living Design for Your Home
Black Diamond designs custom pools, spas, and outdoor living spaces for homeowners in La Quinta, Indio, Indian Wells, and across the Coachella Valley. We'll help you find the style that fits your home, then deliver permit-ready pool plans your builder can price and build from.
Swimming Pool Plans in the Style You Want
Every homeowner pictures a different backyard. Some want a clean modern rectangle with a tanning ledge, others a curved resort-style pool, a fire ledge along the water, or a swim-up bar beside the outdoor kitchen. We'll work with you to find the look that complements your home, from midcentury lines in Palm Springs to Mediterranean courtyards.
A well-designed pool turns the backyard into a place to host guests, entertain, and enjoy desert evenings most of the year. See how it comes together at our Calle Cadiz residence in La Quinta and the outdoor entertainment design in Rancho Mirage.
Why Work With a Professional Pool Designer
Black Diamond got its start in pool design, and that experience shapes every backyard we draw. Pool design plans have to resolve barrier and fencing requirements, setbacks, equipment placement, site drainage, and gas lines for fire features before the city will issue a permit.
We handle those details from the start, so your contractor builds from a complete set and the finished pool matches the design you approved. Our Rossi estate pool shows the design renders and the finished build side by side.
Outdoor Spaces We Design
Pool and Spa Design
From plunge pools to resort-style layouts with raised spas and water walls, we design the pool around how you plan to use it. Equipment placement, decking, and barrier requirements are resolved in the same set.
Patio Covers and Shade Structures
Shade makes a desert backyard usable through the summer. Our patio cover plans include attached covers, pergolas, and freestanding shade structures, engineered for wind and sun exposure and ready for permit.
Outdoor Kitchens and BBQ Islands
An outdoor kitchen keeps the cook part of the gathering. Our outdoor kitchen plans include BBQ islands, bars, and fire features, with gas, electrical, and water rough-in coordinated with the surrounding hardscape.
Serving Indio, La Quinta, Palm Desert and the Desert Cities
3 Steps to Your Pool and Outdoor Living Plans

Walk the backyard

We prepare the drawings to submittal standard, take them through plan check, and deliver a set your contractor can price and build from.
