California has always had a complicated love affair with the swimming pool. From the Hollywood Hills to Malibu's PCH, a great pool isn't just a luxury — it's a lifestyle statement.
Here are some of our favorite pool vibes in the Golden State:
Malibu
Nothing beats a Malibu pool with an ocean view. The best ones sit on bluffs above the Pacific, where the pool water seems to merge with the horizon. The architecture tends toward clean mid-century lines — flat roofs, glass walls, travertine decking. Our kind of aesthetic.
Palm Springs
The spiritual home of mid-century modern design. Palm Springs pools are legendary — kidney shaped, surrounded by desert landscaping, with a view of the San Jacinto mountains. This is where our design DNA comes from.
Hollywood Hills
Infinity edges, city views, and year-round sunshine. The Hills pool scene is glamorous, architectural and unapologetically extra. Exactly the kind of pool that deserves a MidMods float.
Santa Barbara
More relaxed than LA, more sophisticated than anywhere else. Santa Barbara pools tend toward Spanish colonial architecture with lush landscaping. Gorgeous.
Wherever your pool is, it deserves a float that matches. Welcome to the MidMods Swim Club.
