Eco Factor: Sustainable spa to be made using recycled materials.
Studio Noach along with Anne Holtrop has designed a floating spa exhibition that will be on display during the Architecture of Consequence in the Netherlands. The spa has been envisioned as an extension of the land into the water to create a serene environment.
The Floating Spa is made using recycled polystyrene and Partick Blanc’s “living wall” ideas. The architecture makes the walls and ceilings as outer surface of the hills and valleys, while the interior follows the counter form of the landscape.
The spa will have vegetated walls and ceilings that will become a breeding ground for birds, butterflies and several insects. Moreover, this unique construction will use the surrounding water as a heat exchanger, making the spa 70 percent more efficient than conventional energy systems.
