A Place to Bathe
Concept:
Spiritual Progression
The goal of this design is to create an innovative Islamic inspired spa for the
handicapped that brings the religion to them. Using the Five Pillars of Faith as
inspiration, the building is broken down into five spaces: sitting area, hallway,
meditation room, bathing area, and pool. Through the use of shape, color, and
symbolism, the Islamic religion is made reachable for the handicapped world.
The octagonal shapes are reminiscent of the shape of the Islamic mosques.
The geometric shaped patterns used on the tile are a combination of Islamic inspired colors and shapes.
By combining the message and meditation room, the average handicapped person is allowed the space to lie flat while facing east to prayer without causing harm to themselves. While praying and meditating they have the privilege to receive a message.
Going into this project, my first idea was to look at the Indonesian bathing culture. After much research, their bathing culture focused around the Islamic religion. This led me to further research on the Islamic religion. After much research, I found the Five Pillars of Faith. The idea of the Five Pillars of Faith was very instrumental in the design of the spa and bathing area.
In this zoom in rendered plan, you are able to see that the pool area is covered in turquoise blue tile. The use of blue tile gives that appearance of a deep blue water.
This is a view of the bathing area. The design and color scheme is be duplicated in the meditation room and sitting area. To create a uniformed islam inspired environment.
Here is an up close view of the overrall tile pattern in each space. The pattern is broken down into 2' x 2' custom made ceramic tiles.
In this view you are able to see how the ramp interacts with the rest of the pool area. Also a key design element in the room is the use of floor to ceiling windows as walls and skylight. There is also a waterfall in the pool area.
