Splashpoint Leisure Centre, Worthing, United Kingdom. Architect: Wilkinson Eyre Architects, 2013. Internal view of main pool and
Wilkinson Eyre was appointed to design this new swimming pool following a RIBA competition. The new pool complex will include a six lane, 25 metre pool, a combined learner/diving pool, indoor leisure pools with rapids, flumes and outdoor waters, a health and fitness centre, café, crèche and flexible space for other activities. The site, located adjacent to the existing Aquarena on the seafront and close to the town centre, presents an exciting development opportunity on a unique seafront site. The design aims to maximise the potential of the site with ‘ribbons’ of accommodation flowing from north to south to emphasise the connection between land and sea. Each pool form has its own terrace, opening up the façade to animate the beachfront elevation and enlivening this prominent location in line with the Council’s aspirations for an Active Beach Zone.
