2025 Southern Architecture Awards Winner
Roxburgh Pool
The Roxburgh Pool seamlessly blends practicality, sustainability, and sculptural design gestures. The facility comprises three separate pools, a changing pavilion, and a shade structure, and successfully realises the goal of reducing operating costs for the community. A shade structure utilises a semi-transparent solar panel array to create a soft, dappled light below; a demonstration of infrastructure designed in a way that enhances the experience of the place. Simple geometry of the changing pavilion beautifully complements the rugged Teviot Valley landscape, while the golden hue of the faceted screen serves as a year-round reminder of the autumn colours.
