    Smile Appreciate your opinions on color of decking!

    I'm a newbie (to any forum)and this is a great site! We like to put in an in ground with white or off white colored decking to contrast with a deep blue pool color. This doesn't seem very common. We understand the downside of being too bright on the eyes, but we really like the clean contemporary look. The usual colored concrete doesn't seem to really offer it. Hope to have your thoughts on the pros and cons on these options and what you can recommend:
    1)White concrete.
    2)Dry-shake or color hardeners concrete overlays.
    3)tiles such as white travertine or ceramic.
    4)Any good sites or links?
    Thank you

    I have a very light tan tile that goes around my pool. They are porcelain, and I really like it. It doesn't get hot, and is easy to just hose off. Here is a picture of the pool with tile.
