A Choreography of Water, Light, and Space Interplay

This thesis explores the interplay of water, light, and space in a choreography of architectural sequences. Through the design of a spa, it explores how these elements can evoke sensory and emotional responses, shaping human perception and interaction within spatial environments. The project unfolds as a choreography where water in its various states and qualities interacts with light and architectural space, creating an immersive sensory journey. This choreography carefully modulates centrifugal (outward-directed) and centripetal (inward-directed) experiences, crafting a dynamic interplay between the individual and the surrounding space.
