그동안 중지됐던 옥상 수영장의 디자인이 발표됐다.

엠버시 가든의 옥상에 위치할 이 스카이풀은 수영을 하면서 이 동에서 저 동으로 건너갈 

수 있다.  지상에서 높이 35m 높이에 있으며 수심 1.2m, 길이 25m 폭 5m로 투명한 

바닥의 두께는 20cm다.

옥상에는 수영장 외에도 스파와 바 등이 마련되어 입주민들이 호텔처럼 휴식을 취할 수 

있게 된다. 영국의 Arup Associates사가 설계했다.

그 동안 리조트 호텔 등에 적용됐던 옥상 수영장을 거주용 아파트에 벤치마킹한 것이라 

볼 수 있다.  그중 유명한 것은 쌍용건설이 시공한 싱가포르 마리나 베이 샌즈 호텔의 

옥상 수영장이 있다.

Plans for a suspended swimming pool have been unveiled for Nine Elms, the new neighbourhood on the River Thames in south west London.

Named ‘Sky Pool’, the outdoor pool at the Embassy Gardens development will link two residential buildings at the 10th storey – a world first – and allow residents to swim from one building to the next.

The sky deck at the top of the two buildings incorporates a spa, summer bar and Orangery for residents to relax and take in the views of London icons which include the Houses of Parliament, London Eye and new US Embassy next door.

 

The pool is transparent and structure free, 25m long, 5m wide and 3m deep with a water depth of 1.2m. Designed by Arup Associates, with specialist input from Eckersley O’Callaghan and aquarium designers Reynolds, the experience is intended to be more akin to an aquarium than a pool, with glass that is 20cm thick.

The pool is the vision of Sean Mulryan, Chairman and CEO of Ballymore Group, working with the scheme’s architects Arup Associates. Ballymore are responsible for the development of Embassy Gardens with their development partners Eco World. Together they are developing the second phase as Eco World Ballymore. Ballymore has a reputation for creating places and spaces that are more than just bricks and mortar, and this pool is testimony to this philosophy – creating an inspiring environment and giving a unique character to the development.
