The project proposes the transformation of Prøvestenen Fort into a bathhouse. The proposal acts as catalyst for a literal and metaphorical cleansing of the industrial area where the structure is now located. The new program responds to the spatial sequences and geometric complexity of the interiors of the fortification, and challenges the traditional gender segregation of public baths.
How the situation of the fort has changed throughout the years, and how the proposed state is inspired by preexisting and historical elements.
The historical evolution of the fort and the context
The zoning of the building and the different design approaches that took place in order to insert the new program in the building.
Design Strategies
Floor plan and sections of the proposal
The Bathhouse - Plans
How the spaces along the fort are to be used following the concept of a gradient of privacy. The pieces of furniture that complement the program functionally are also detailed in this section.
Activities related to the baths
Technical solutions on how new elements meet the old ones; and everyday scenes of how the spaces are used. This combination transmits the atmosphere that is conveyed within the revitalized building.
The everyday in the bathhouse - Details
A series of views throughout the interiors of the building; and exterior views of how the building is seen in different temporalities. In these views, an emphasis in diversity has been made. The project aims to encourage the interaction between the genders and be a space where everyone is welcome. The building is segregated as a gradient of privacy, where the bather is free to choose from a social- to an intimate- and even a private experience.
A bathhouse for the people
