feast your eyes on this restored 1930s danish public pool

Making a splash in your local body of chlorinated water only looks this grand when said body of water is found somewhere in Europe. Forget doggy-paddling past peeled-off Band Aids and too-low ceilings squeezing the oxygen out of your body every time you break the surface mid-stroke, the Danes have gone and done it right. Right, being restoring an almost 100-year-old civic aquatic centre into an arty dreamscape. Even the nudist swimmers flaunting their stuff in the vintage mosaics are casting looks of envy! Admittedly, we are too. Peruse the story behind Cornelius Vöge’s divine restoration work on their website this-a-way.
