The SPA is an extension of the Domaine des Trois Forêts designed by Art’Ur.

A large, slender glass pavilion with a generously overhanging roof acts as an entrance signal and link to the aquamundo.

The semi-ovoid, shell-like hall is illuminated by its large, curved glass facade to the south and houses pools and beaches.

A ring-shaped perimeter embankment forms a protective enclosure for the building, its ponds and outdoor areas.

The intimate care areas are half-buried in this embankment.

Environmental approach

Thanks to the use of prefabrication, the approach is very efficient on the constructive targets (integrated choice of constructive processes / construction site with low environmental impact). The luminous architecture allows visual comfort and the landscaping work enhances the integration of the building in its immediate environment. The sanitary quality of areas and water, energy and sustainable water management are at the heart of a technical design included and thought out in the architectural approach.

Technical specifications

Following the example of the neighbouring Aquamundo, a peripheral ring in concrete structure integrates all the technical equipment, serving as a support for the glued laminated structural elements of the hall and forming a low side buried in embankments. All of the roofing rests on glued laminated timber frames: the hall’s frame supports a transparent inflatable ETFE cover. The glazed facades are curtain walls tightened on the wooden posts. The floor area of 1 658 sq.m. corresponds to a covered enclosed area of 3 098 sq.m. .
