Thanks everyone it's growing on me. I'm thinking instead of tropical landscaping I'm going to do mediterranean theme.

Were you not crazy about the tile to begin with? Maybe the grays were too close to the gunite, so they didn't give you the pop or change you thought you would see once the tile was installed. That sort of happened to me when the coping was first on. I liked it ok, but it didn't seem to make the huge difference I was expecting.
I think with the grays, you may have to wait until the water is in the pool. And then you will see how gorgeous the tile is. But every pool I have seen with gray tiles and decking look fabulous! I then start second guessing my color choices. I've about decided that all pools are beautiful, and that's why I always think I want the 'other' one. I have a hard time selecting tile and pool finish, because I really do think they're all so pretty.
I hate to show my ignorance (and I'm too lazy to google...), but tell me more about a Mediterranean theme. And how is it different from tropical? I'm going for the cottage/English cottage theme for landscaping.
Do you have any inspiration pictures, say from Pinterest, to show us what you have in mind? I'm really curious..... Oh dear, I'm going to have to go over to Pinterest and check it out. But still, tell me your version and send some pictures if you have any. Take care. Suz.

Suz something like this:
i feel like the way the sheer was done tropical wouldn't match so were going to do more of a modern type landscape

Oh, THAT'S beautiful! I love that! And I haven't seen that before - at least not around Houston - well, any place I've been in Houston... Someone probably has it in River Oaks where the Bush's live, but I've certainly never been there! That's going to be lovely, and it suits your grays and browns. You've got great ideas! Suz.
looking good and filling up! I can't wait to see the BG PS in the depth you have. I am looking at BG, Aqua, and I would like to see the new Blue Surf.
Titan, we looked at aqua as well but for us it was too light and too fake looking if that's even the right terminology?
