Annotation
The morning mist over the river evaporates, revealing the spa hidden in the slope of the newly created square. The thick concrete walls and pillars that support the public space above them allow the southern sun to enter, reflecting off the water surface of the pools. The skylights, under which the swimming pool and islands of greenery are located, create a cave atmosphere, and visitors can find their new peaceful refuge in Dolní Holešovice from the hustle of city life that takes place above them. The entrance is a ramp running through the slope, connecting the embankment with the square. It also includes a connection to the underground parking lot of the surrounding buildings and to the bistro. The views from the pools to the river offer a bond that is even stronger in the colder months.
