- Production Technology
- The pool area integrates traditional Moroccan craftsmanship through the application of tadelakt plaster, valued for its waterproof, seamless surface and soft reflectivity. Complementing this, handmade Zellige tiles introduce intricate geometric compositions, enhancing both durability and visual rhythm. The design methodology relied on pattern studies and chromatic research, reinterpreting Moroccan motifs into a contemporary context to balance artisanal heritage with modern wellness design principles.
- Design Challenge
- The creative challenge was to reinterpret Moroccan elements in a modern pool setting while ensuring technical precision. Applying tadelakt plaster proved demanding, as its seamless, water-resistant surface requires high craftsmanship and cannot be repaired once errors occur. Additional obstacles included sourcing authentic Zellige tiles, integrating a skimmer system, and aligning underfloor heating with wellness functions, all under strict local construction standards.
- Project Duration
- The project was developed and realized in Ankara between 2023 and 2025, transforming cultural inspiration into a contemporary spa-like pool environment.
- Operation Flow
- The pool area is designed as a wellness retreat where users transition seamlessly from water to lounge. Daybeds and cabanas create zones of privacy, while arches frame perspectives. Natural light, reflections, and greenery guide spatial flow, ensuring a calming, immersive experience.
- Research
- The design is grounded in research on Moroccan courtyards, arches, and artisanal surfaces. Studies on tadelakt’s waterproof qualities, Zellige’s geometric modularity, and the psychological impact of blush pink and azure hues informed spatial and material choices, balancing tradition with wellness design.
- Inspiration
- This design draws inspiration from the atmospheric courtyards and archways of Moroccan heritage, reinterpreted through a contemporary lens. The concept emerged from a desire to create a sanctuary where water, light, and color converge to evoke serenity. Studies on spatial flow and material durability informed the structure, while the use of soft pink and blue hues reflects research into calming visual environments for wellness-focused spaces.
