Oasis Pools is proud to announce another prestigious industry honor, winning the Residential Outdoor Living Space category at the 2026 SOPHI Awards, presented by Sophisticated Living St. Louis. Making the achievement even more impressive, Oasis Pools had two separate projects selected as finalists in the same category, further demonstrating the company’s excellence in custom swimming pool design and luxury outdoor living.
The third annual SOPHI Awards celebrated the very best in design, architecture, and the built environment throughout the Greater St. Louis region. Following two consecutive sold-out events, the awards have quickly become one of the area’s premier celebrations of design excellence, recognizing outstanding creativity, innovation, and craftsmanship. This year’s awards ceremony was held on November 12, 2026, at the beautiful Missouri Botanical Garden in St. Louis, Missouri, bringing together leading architects, designers, builders, and other industry professionals to celebrate the region’s most exceptional projects.
