Project overview
Project overview:
The aquatic centre is composed of a competition pool, a wave pool, a jacuzzi, slides, a restaurant and a solarium.
Sheltered by a tree-like timber roof structure and a zinc covering, this exemplary project made it possible to develop revolutionary technical processes that are now references in the field.
