Notes:

The Aquamundo hall is comprised of three roofs spanning 35 metres and houses 5000 m² of water attractions, swimming pools and beaches immersed in dense tropical greenery. The structure is a clover-shaped cross covered in curves and blades of glue laminated timber; the units being large to allow for tree growth.

 

The roof is covered with transparent Texlon® ETFE cushions. The lightweight system offered the client tremendous advantages over traditional roofing systems in terms of energy savings, sound dispersion, lower structural costs and uninterrupted UV light transmission.
