The aim in constructing this space was to ritualise the act of inmersing oneself in water. By creating a transition between the outside and the aquatic environment, it allowed for a heightened perception of inmersion the water. Inside, the only light entering came throught the opening above the water, casting a blue hue over the space. The rounded shape ensured optimal acoustics of the water movement,
