Serving Illinois

Luxury Pool & Outdoor Design in Chicago, Illinois

Chicago's North Shore estates, Lincoln Park townhomes, and Lake Geneva compounds are investing in outdoor spaces that maximize a shorter but intensely valued outdoor season. AEON's photoreal 3D design process is especially valuable in northern climates — where getting the design right before a six-month construction window is critical. From rooftop terraces in the city to lakefront estates on the North Shore, we deliver master blueprints and renderings that bring the vision to life.

Designing for Chicago

Climate, context,
and certified installers.
