架构师提供的文本描述。一个私人水疗中心，一个隐蔽的避难所-一个反射的空间。

Text description provided by the architects. A private spa, a hidden sanctuary - a space for reflection.

在最近由理查德·贝尔建筑(RichardBell Architecture)拍摄的这一项目中，赫莱娜·比内(Hélène Biner)拍摄了一幅美丽的照片。一个巨大的体积是从一端照明的，并被一万块手工砖块包围，每个砖块上都印有它的制造者的拇指印。当光线在粗糙的砖块表面上留下痕迹时，它就能看到一片起伏不定的山脊和山谷的微型景观。这种粗糙的质地砖与池子的玻璃状黑色形成了鲜明的对比。水面的膨胀静止反映了空间，并对体积产生了倍增效应。

In this recent project by Richard Bell Architecture, as beautifully photographed by Hélène Binet, the light is celebrated and the darkness indulged. A huge volume is illuminated from one end and enclosed by ten thousand handmade bricks, each bearing the thumbprint of its maker. As the light tracks over the rough surface of the bricks, it picks out a shifting landscape of ridges and valleys in miniature. This coarse textured brick is in striking contrast to the glass-like blackness of the pools. The expansive stillness of the water’s surface reflects the space and gives a doubling effect to the volume.

这个温泉疗养区是伦敦市中心一所房子的延伸。由于花园的开放性很重要，所以该遗址几乎没有提供地面空间。正是由于这个原因，才产生了一个巨大的地下体积。该卷包括游泳池，桑拿，蒸汽室，健身房，洪水淋浴和更衣室。

This spa and wellness area is an extension to a house in central London. The site offered little above ground space as the openness of the gardens was important to maintain. It is for this reason that a large subterranean volume was created. The volume incorporates pools, a sauna, a steam room, a gym, deluge showers and changing rooms.

灰色的砖块是由一个开放式的樱桃木天花板的视觉温暖，隐藏了多种服务和坚实的结构，支撑以上花园在一个不间断的跨度。

The grey of the bricks is complemented by the visual warmth of an open boarded cherry wood ceiling that conceals a multitude of services and the substantial structure that holds up the gardens above in one uninterrupted span.

建筑中也有好玩的地方。从天花板上悬挂的四米长的喷口和拉长的毛巾钩在砖块上穿插着供水站，它们的长影子可以明显地显示出谨慎的点。

There is playfulness in the architecture too. A water station is fed from a four-meter long spout that hangs from the ceiling and elongated towel hooks punctuate the brickwork, appearing as discreet dots made evident by their long shadows.

耙光，阴影空间，倒影和物质结合在这个水疗中心，创造了一个空间，一个安静的强度和一个温和的戏剧。

The raking light, the shadowy spaces, the reflections and the materiality combine in this spa to create a space with a quiet intensity and a gentle drama.
