46 | Oregon Home WHEN DESIGNER Emily Henderson went looking for a year-round backyard swim spot for her family’s home in Portland, she landed on a Soake pool—a smaller, pre-constructed pool system that can be heated in the winter months or kept cool in summer. “It’s a luxury that we use the heck out of,” Henderson says. “It’s so fun—and we use it even more than I thought we would.” Built off-site and shipped via truck, the Soake has a smaller footprint (7 ft. x 13 ft. in this case) and is less expensive to maintain than a traditional pool. “I’m way less nervous about them all being in there since it’s small and not deep,” Henderson says. stylebyemilyhenderson.com | soakepools.com Super Soaker PHOTO BY KAITLIN GREEN
