The pool embraces natural water features in Faversham, Kent, and translates them into a visual, audible and interactive environment.

Three pools exist for the locals: wave, tidal and thermal.

The wave pool is located in the natural marsh pond. A wind driven organ generates music and waves to orchestrate the children’s play.

The tidal pool responds to the ebb and flow of the moon, calling the middle agers to exercise.

The thermal pool allows the older generation to explore and rest in the reeds like marsh birds.

Daily the volume of the organ and the height of the crystal ball talk of the natural changes in weather and tide, so the people of Faversham can judge whether to visit the local pool or not. But longer term they tell a different story, one of the gradual and complete submersion of the settlement.
