Costa Brava Clube (Beach Club)

By KingSilva

(2025-11-26)

Set atop the rocky coastline of the Joá peninsula, Costa Brava Clube is a landmark of Rio de Janeiro’s beach-club culture and an emblematic blend of nature, architecture, and social life. Founded in 1962 by brothers Ricardo and Renato Menescal, the club was conceived with the bold vision of creating “a ship in the sea” — a retreat where ocean, rock, and leisure meet in harmony.
The club’s original salt-water pool carved directly into the natural rock is perhaps its most iconic feature. Built during the 1960s, the pool used seawater and brought swimmers as close as possible to the Atlantic, creating the sensation of floating in the open ocean while still within a protected club environment. Over time, this distinctive pool became a defining symbol of Costa Brava, attracting surf culture, artists, and generations of cariocas.
The club later evolved into a complete leisure complex. Its spa area offers a sauna, heated pool, hot tub, steam room, gym, relaxation spaces, and a panoramic deck suspended over the sea — a serene escape from Rio’s urban rhythm. Families also enjoy a freshwater pool, children’s facilities, and a sports field complete with bleachers, a bar, and barbecue areas. For those seeking quiet moments in nature, the club features a peaceful fishing area tucked into the natural landscape.
Beyond its facilities, Costa Brava has a rich social and cultural history. Since the 1960s it has been a gathering place for musicians, surfers, socialites, and families. Its oceanfront terraces have hosted concerts, samba gatherings, weddings, New Year’s celebrations, and countless community events, reinforcing its role as a social hub on the Rio coast.
In 2014, the club was officially heritage-listed by the city of Rio de Janeiro, recognizing both its architectural uniqueness and its cultural significance. The designation ensures the preservation of the club’s key structures — including its facades, stairways, pools, and leisure areas — safeguarding its legacy for future generations.
Today, Costa Brava Clube remains one of the most charming and iconic seaside spaces in the city. With its dramatic coastal setting, rock-carved pool, lush decks overlooking the waves, and decades of cultural history, it continues to embody the spirit of Rio: a fusion of nature, community, and a life lived near the sea.

Heart shaped pool

By KingSilva

(2025-10-16)

Tucked away on a private estate, this heart-shaped swimming pool is a charming expression of love through design. Beautifully sculpted into the landscape, it stands apart from traditional rectangular or oval pools, forming a romantic focal point that’s easily recognizable from above.
Heart-shaped pools are rare, yet they became especially popular in the mid-20th century, often featured in glamorous celebrity homes or romantic retreats. This one perfectly captures that era’s playful spirit, blending nostalgia, whimsy, and timeless elegance.
From an aerial view, the shimmering blue water contrasts strikingly with the surrounding greenery, creating a picture-perfect scene that looks like a work of art from the sky. Whether built as a declaration of love or simply as a creative statement, this heart-shaped pool remains a unique and endearing landmark visible to admirers worldwide

Lagunas de oxidación de Paita (Paita Oxidation Ponds)

By alexstokes25

(2022-09-18)

Oxidation ponds, also called lagoons or stabilization ponds, are large, shallow ponds designed to treat wastewater through the interaction of sunlight, bacteria, and algae. Algae grow using energy from the sun and carbon dioxide and inorganic compounds released by bacteria in water. During the process of photosynthesis, the algae release oxygen needed by aerobic bacteria. Mechanical aerators are sometimes installed to supply yet more oxygen, thereby reducing the required size of the pond. Sludge deposits in the pond must eventually be removed by dredging. Algae remaining in the pond effluent can be removed by filtration or by a combination of chemical treatment and settling.

Stradivarius violin shaped swimming pool

By milwhcky

(2015-09-28)

Satellite imagery does not do this pool justice. Check out the link below for some photographs showing the amazing detail on the design of this award winning pool.

Jay Dweck wanted a pool for his back yard, but local zoning restrictions limited the total size allowed. He wanted it long enough to swim laps, so he started drawing narrow shaped designs that would fit the bill. He then realized his design was similar to a violin, an instrument he himself played. The design was modified to replicate a 1700's era Stradivarius. The project was completed by Cipriano Custom Pools and Landscaping.

The pool features 5,600 strands of fiber optic lights and 440,000 pieces of glass tile. The chin rest of the violin is a spa, and the bow is two separate koi ponds.

Dweck is a former executive at Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. In 2015, he was hired by Arxis Capital.

Infinity edge pool

By kjfitz

(2013-06-04)

An infinity edge pool (also named negative edge, zero edge, infinity pool, disappearing edge, or vanishing edge pool) is a swimming or reflecting pool that produces a visual effect of water extending to the horizon, vanishing, or extending to "infinity." The term also is used to describe perimeter overflow pools (pools that may be on level parcels, wherein the water flows over one or more edges, usually flush with the decking elevation). One type of location in which the effect is particularly impressive is where the infinity edge appears to merge with a larger body of water such as the ocean, or with the sky (if the pool is located on the side of a hill or field of green).

Infinity edge pools are often seen at exotic resorts and exclusive estates, in advertisements and in other luxurious places. The infinity pool design concept is said to have originated in France, where one of the first vanishing edge designs was utilized in the "Stag Fountain" at the Palace of Versailles in the early 1600s.
