Splashpoint, WilkinsonEyre was appointed to design this new swimming pool for Worthing Borough Council following a RIBA Design Competition. The new pool complex includes a six-lane, 25-meter pool; a combined learner/diving pool; indoor leisure pools with rapids, flumes, and outdoor waters; a health and fitness center; café; crèche and flexible space for other activities.

This new complex, located adjacent to the existing Aquarena and close to the town center, is an exciting development on a unique seafront site. The design maximizes the potential of the site with ‘ribbons’ of accommodation flowing from north to south to emphasize the connection between land and sea. Each pool has its own terrace, opening up the façade to animate the beachfront elevation and enliven this prominent location in line with the Council’s aspirations for an Active Beach Zone.
