Description

It is said that architecture is an immersive experience. Few examples will attest to it better that this beautiful pool in Leça da Palmeira. As an old and diligent summer friend, this pool is made of bone and muscle, rough concrete and wood dried up by salt and burnt oil. The changing rooms, covered by a greenish copper, hide bathers from indiscrete onlookers passing in the street. On the other side, the tank is a portion of mild sea whose geometry was found in the middle of the rocks.
