BADEANSTALT BODENSEE

A bathing establishment is historically a facility in which baths can be taken, for example, for hygienic or health reasons. Today, it is rather understood as institutionalized and structural, public as well as closed institutions for bathing as a medical or recreational facility such as swimming pools, open-air pools, natural baths, spas, in a broader sense also saunas and the like.

The Badeanstalt Bodensee fits into the existing topography and combines under three multifunctional roofs two bathing halls and a catering area. The long bars are zoned and divided into a boot and barefoot area. Between the bars, embedded in the topography, connecting pieces with serving functional spaces are incorporated.

The heavy roofs rest on filigree steel supports and the extensive glass facade ensures a blurring of the interior and exterior spaces.
