HEX | wellness center

Saco Lake, Boston, MA, USA

The project is built upon the first three basins that we designed. Because the building is siting in the mountain, I designed three hexagon pools with varied heights aiming to reflect the variation of heights in space. Also, the interconnected space created by the diffferent sizes of hexagons can be used in many different ways by users like sitting, lying, standing and so on. To continue the idea of hexagons and at the same time to enclose the building, I use wood ribs. The wood ribs aim to continue the idea of hexagons horizontally. Also, in order to add more vitality to the building, the wood ribs are cut in purpose, which is to to help users experience space from private to public and from darkness to brightness.
