A Technicolor Dreamcoat

Paolo Benedetti, founder of Aquatic Technology Pool & Spa - Vanishing Infinity Negative Disappearing Perimeter Knife Edge Swimming Pools Spa Expert

Another client quote from the same Southern California consumer "ranking" website (there were only 2):

He entitled it:

"Paolo is the worlds best aquatic designer - insightful, creative, & detailed!"

"The worlds' best - hands down! I have Ex-Presidents as personal friends & now proudly include Paolo among them! I'll fly him anywhere - at any cost, for my next project! We're so glad that we went with our gut instinct and hired Paolo. He operated on a "cost+" basis, and at first we thought that additional travel & hotel expenses, per Diem fees, & material sourcing trips, in addition to the cost+ were crazy. But, we got the best end of the deal & we get to enjoy his artwork everyday!

Though it was against his financial interest, he negotiated the best prices on materials, even importing materials from far flung corners of the world. He saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars on the overall project. I can not express the level of satisfaction, follow through, and design sense he brought to our project.

I can not imagine our pools without him (he has done 3 properties for us)... they'd be an architects boring monochromatic hallucination... instead we got a technicolor dream coat!

We've since brought him in & included him on the design team of a casino, an office building, and a house in the Islands that we are building. We have given him a lot of responsibility and freedom to "do his thing." The hardest part is staying out of his way... when he gets going, he's like the Tasmanian devil on a triple espresso!

So creative, visionary, opinionated, yet likable, and yes expensive - but, I'm proud to include him among my friends. How many clients of my stature, welcome a designer/contractor into their inner family of friends? He is as comfortable on a ranch hunting as in a black tie - at opening night of the Met! A true renaissance man, world traveled, speaks multiple languages, college educated, karate 3rd degree black belt... and a gifted designer/contractor!

I'm also privileged to have one of his early creations... though his visions & creations are hidden away in backyards across the country, THEY WILL BE DISCOVERED AND REVERED LIKE FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT'S or PICASSO'S WORK! His work is beyond description.... and he was always looking out for our best interest!

PROS: Absolutely flawless - a perfect canary yellow diamond!
CONS: Expensive, Qualifies his Clients, a Waiting List - but worth the wait!"

I could have summed that up in three words: "honest, gifted & intense."

Blowing my own horn!

Paolo Benedetti of Aquatic Technology Pool & Spa - Expert in Vanishing Infinity Negative Disappearing Perimeter Knife Edge Swimming Pools Spa Construction

Every once & a while... we get to blow our own horn!

I recently ran across the following client comment on a Southern California consumer "rating" website:

"For those clients where money is not an object, and who has no problem parting with it, Paolo Benedetti is a true artist. We commissioned a design (for a fee of course), which turned out awesome! He met with us over a period of a few weeks, presenting various options and concepts. He listened to our needs and concerns, and even made a great many observations himself. He really cared about us and our project, ensuring that we do not outgrow its functionality.

We decided to have him build & manage our project, as we had grown very comfortable with him. Though he is located in Northern California, he was here when needed.

We were not in a hurry to be swimming in a few months. And after watching the level of craftsmanship that went into EVERY level of construction, there is no way they could have built our project in any less time. They even mapped out the days for the proper curing of the cements & mortars, to ensure that everything is done by the book.

Our finished project is flawless. A one of a kind creation that seamlessly integrates water into the architecture of our house and landscaping.

We later found out that he was ranked as one of the top 3 builders in the LA area, though he is in San Jose, CA (The Franklin Report). Now we know why he is in such demand. His projects have even appeared in the NY Times, US Today, and on many TV programs.

PROS: Absolute highest construction standards & practices!
CONS: Expensive, but what quality artwork isn't?"

Speaks for itself, now doesn't it?
