“Tournesol” Swimming Pool Refurbishment | Urbane Kultur

created 183″Tournesol” Swimming Pool Refurbishment  around France in the 1970s.Bernard Schoeller, an architect in the 1960s. These are rational and have architectural features featuring splendid spatial qualities, sufficient natural lighting, and a well-built structural framework. The large sliding doors also add to the house’s aesthetics by efficiently combining the indoors with the outdoors. The intervention proposed for the “Tournesol” swimming pool refurbishment seeks to respect those spaces and bring the architectural and functional aspects of the building up to today’s standards.

Extending the capabilities of the autarchic “Tournesol” pool cover structure may present difficulties. How can it be improved or engineered to be better without altering its appearance?

“Tournesol” Swimming Pool Refurbishment’s Plan

In the “Tournesol” Swimming Pool Refurbishment project, a new building for the extension hosts the entrance, dressing, offices, and technical spaces. It is located some distance from the pool hall and revolves around the dome in Figure eight without touching it or changing its size. A landscaped patio sits between them and allows numerous transparent connections between the hall, the two pools, and the locker rooms.
