Client Brief

To redesign a rooftop lap pool, which spans between two apartment buildings in Hawthorn, creating a pool ‘bridge.’

Solutions

We reduced the mass of the pool structure by adopting a stainless-steel structure design, maintaining the acrylic windows in the floor and walls. We also worked with the building’s structural engineers to reduce the mass and complexity of the supporting structure. Adopting alternative finishes were implemented to avoid future maintenance problems.
