Te Aranga Principles
- Wairuatanga: Spirituality
- Kotahitanga: Unity & Togetherness
- Whanaungatanga: Relationship & Family
The concept is about escaping the hectic lives we have to “delve into the nature and the Wairuatanga of the forest, while also strengthening the bond between our relationships with our loved ones (Kotahitanga & Whanaungatanga).
I want this bathing experience to be a chance for people to escape and connect with the tranquility of the forest, while we are in a vulnerable state (being exposed while bathing) with other people. I want the experience to feel as if we are bathing in the forest, which is very natural and raw.
Overall appearance of the model with the inclusion of my pocket forest and my proposal.
An eye level view of the model, which shows the reflection inside the building. This is to reflect the forest to create an illusion of bathing in the forest, while also reflecting more light into the space.
