About Us

You Can Rely On Us For Your Project​

Aquatics International Group is a team of tried-and-true aquatic construction specialists who have been at the helm of complex pool projects for over 25 years. Our primary focus is luxury resort aquatic development — and we have spent a career selecting the best of the best when it comes to design vision, construction execution, client partnership, and project management.

We built the Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas. We built TMPL NYC. We have excavated volcanic rock on private Caribbean islands and installed competition-grade aquatic wellness systems in the middle of Manhattan. We do not take on projects we cannot execute — and we do not execute a project that does not reflect our highest standards.

Our team strives to meet your deadline without exceeding your budget — and when the unexpected happens in the field, we solve it without losing either.

Meet Our Founder

Christopher Fogleman — Founder & President, Aquatics International Group

Christopher Fogleman builds pools.

With more than 25 years of hands-on aquatic construction experience, Chris is the founder and president of Aquatics International Group, a luxury aquatic design-build firm operating across the Caribbean, New York City, and international resort markets. His credentials are not theoretical. He built the Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas pool complex and TMPL NYC, one of Manhattan’s most celebrated aquatic wellness facilities.

Chris began his career in Atlanta, where he spent over a decade building one of the most award-decorated residential pool companies in the southeastern United States. That work earned two APSP Best in Show awards, eleven APSP Gold Medals, two Pebble Tec World’s Greatest Pools designations, and features in Luxury Pools Magazine, Modern Luxury Interiors, and Caribbean Journal.

From that foundation, Chris made a deliberate pivot away from residential construction and toward luxury resort hotel pools, commercial aquatic wellness facilities, and private island developments where the margin for error is zero and client expectations are absolute.

Chris holds Society of Watershape Designers certification (KM 072-17) and Certified Pool Operator certification (C-123597), bringing to every project not just design vision, but the construction intelligence that comes from having built what he draws.

For resort developers, hospitality groups, and wellness operators who need more than a beautiful concept, Christopher Fogleman delivers the experience, certifications, and proven track record to execute in the world’s most demanding environments.

Our Mission & Vision

The founding vision of Aquatics International Group was singular: to build a firm that is unambiguously the best in the world at luxury resort and commercial aquatic construction. Not the largest. Not the cheapest. The best. That vision drives every hiring decision, every material specification, and every conversation with a client. Our primary focus is luxury resort aquatic development — and we intend to be the only name a resort developer or hospitality group ever needs to call.
