RESIDENTS: Ali and Soheila Abyane of Glendale. SIZE OF POOL: 20 by 40 feet. UNIQUE POOL ATTRIBUTES: Pool is built against a hillside, with a waterfall waterfall, a sudden unsupported drop in a stream. It is formed when the stream course is interrupted as when a stream passes over a layer of harder rock—often igneous—to an area of softer and therefore more easily eroded rock; the edge of a cliff or coming down into the pool and a spa incorporated into the overall design. Flagstone flagstone: see silt. walls and paving add to the natural theme. WHY THEY THINK THEIR POOL IS SPECIAL: ``It's like a tropical paradise . . . very relaxing and peaceful,'' says their son Rob, 14. POOL DESIGNER: ``We designed the pool ourselves and then had SCV SCV Santa Clarita Valley (California) SCV Sons of Confederate Veterans SCV Santa Clara Vanguard SCV Singapore Cable Vision SCV Special Category Visa (Australia) SCV StarHub Cable Vision Pool Co.in Valencia build it,'' says Ali.
