Češča Vas Pool Complex

The Češča Vas Pool Complex is situated in a space dominated by the recently renovated velodrome. Our aim was to avoid drastically altering the existing spatial relationships with the addition of the new swimming facility, as doing so could introduce unwanted visual clutter and further saturate the area.

Instead, the new structure leverages the natural topography of the sloped terrain, positioned as low as possible to avoid becoming a new dominant feature. Its understated presence is defined by a low, floating roof that allows the surrounding landscape to visually flow across the pool.

This roof also houses all programmatic elements that do not require direct contact with the water, such as support spaces and technical infrastructure. The spatial organization ensures a higher ceiling above the pool area and a more intimate height over the reception and changing rooms.

Perimeter lighting enhances the sense of the roof volume hovering above the water, while the interior opens up to wide, uninterrupted views of the surrounding nature – creating a serene, immersive environment for visitors.
