In Vathorst, a residential area of Amersfoort, we are currently building a swimming pool for R & A Sports and Swimming, which provides swimming classes for all ages. The building will be located on a hill, in which the pool shell disappears inside it. With a facade of black wooden planks, a kinked roof and a bronze coloured standing seam metal roof panels, the building is visually connected to the historic buildings that are still present in the area.

The building consists of a small catering facility situated in the entrance area from which the pool of 10×20 meters can be seen. Changing rooms and showers are located next to the pool. Due to the clearly arranged layout, the pool can be seen at all times from the waiting area and is therefore highly suitable for swimming lessons.
