Looking Outwords:09

The Horticultural Spa is a spa for plants and people. It is part greenhouse and part “pneumatic bubble”. The purpose it to create a place for people to breathe and connect. I chose Rachel Wingfield as she has experience with large-scale architecture which is something I am also interested in. In this space, she transforms this public garden in order to tell her story about water scarcity and how innovative technologies can start to be redeveloped to reduce consumption. Meditative practices are also used in the spa and certain soundtracks generate music as well. I like how she tries to merge biological and technological futures through her work especially at an urban scale.
