Floating Public Bath

The new floating bath in Riddarfjärden is inspired by the old roman baths as well as traditional wooden Nordic bathhouses. The bath is organized in five volumes. The first one contains a restaurant and reception. The circle and the square are two separate sections for women and men with changing rooms, saunas, relax areas and pools protected from view. The fourth volume is a mixed area containing a larger sauna with a panoramic view over the bay and the Town Hall, and the fifth volume is a jumping tower.
    In the middle is the large main pool open for everyone. Bathers can move freely on bridges along the outside of the entire bathhouse, and each volume has a sun terrace on the roof with a magnificent view of Riddarfjärden. The bath is built in wood and the color scheme is inspired by the classic warm tones of Stockholms architecture.
