In my last weeks of work, I was asked to help design another clubhouse, because of my experience in working on clubhouse detailing for the past TWO YEARS.
One of the components is a 'leisure pool', the kind you see fat people flopping about in, because swimming is for fools ("No wait, pools are for swimming, not vice versa";"I said 'fools', not pools"; "Oh").
As opposed to a lap pool, it is supposed to be curvy and 'organic'. In such situations, architects generally take design cues from a strong concept, or criteria such as views, privacy and access. I just decided to be inspired by 'Nature':
To the right of the leisure pool would come the straighter, less organic lap pool. Wait, did I just say 'lap'?
Updates are always a pain, unless they're like this:
