BIG
IDEA
The BIG idea of the design is inspired by the water cycle, which is closely related to the bath house. The evaporation of boiling water can be reinterpreted into the building through subtractive transformation, mimicking the transformation of molecules from liquid to gas. Also, the direction of "condensation" is towards the Public Hall to represent the idea of Bath house being a shared facility, giving back to the community.
