Saco Lake Baths

 

What humans build is always provisional within the framework of something more permanent: that of the 'natural' site. What if that site foregrounds a human history instead? This bathhouse explores what would happen if both the permanent and the provisional were conceived by us, where we build the walls of our past in addition to the future that they constrain.
