The client lives in a detached house in the Kempen (Belgium), designed by the renowned architect Jo Crepain. dmvA was commissioned design a natural swimming pool and sauna pavilion in the garden of the house. The swimming pool is bordered with blue stone, the same material as the plinthes of the white plastered house. The sauna pavilion, a cube of 3 x 3 x 3 meters, is implanted next to the natural pool. The interior and the relaxing room are finished in Abachi wood. Out of respect for the design of the architect of the house, the exterior is covered with mirrors, that reflect the surrounding area and thus make the intervention practically invisible.
