Appreciations towards Zait Lev Architects for providing the following description:

Arava水上运动中心位于Arava地区的核心位置，坐落在Darga山的山脚下。项目包含一座带有多个泳池的运动设施和一个社区中心，取代了每个沙漠社区内的露天小泳池，为所有社区提供服务。建筑主要供游泳课和比赛使用，也可以提供各种各样的体育、休闲和娱乐课程。它同时也是一个开放平台，可以举行社区活动和公共演出。项目还保留了水井的部分历史功能，水作为生命和场所的源泉，带来邂逅和社交的机遇

In the heart of the Arava region, at the foot of Mount Darga, is the Arava Aquatic Sport Center. The project offers a multi-pool sports facility and community center to the various desert communities of the Arava, and it replaces the single outdoor pools in each of the communities. The structure is used for swimming lessons and competitions, as well as various sports, leisure and recreational classes. It also serves as an open platform for community activities and public events. The project restores part of the historical role of the well: Water as a source of life and a place that allows opportunities for encounters and social activities.

灵感
Inspiration

死海北部的古代昆兰遗迹是设计的灵感来源。在这里，岩石上开凿了不同形状和功能的贮水池，水与建筑关系和谐，呈现出当地特有的简洁风格。

The remains of the Ancient Qumran in the north of the Dead Sea were a source of inspiration for us: The cisterns carved into the rock in a variety of shapes and uses, as well as the harmonious relationship between water and construction, together with the vernacular compactness of the built-up structures.

作为建筑材料的水
Water as a building material

项目的核心建立在一片连续的三维水体上。水流淌于建筑之间，人们可以在桥上活动，水与结构塑造了丰富多样的空间场景，包含一个1/2奥运尺寸的泳池，一个儿童泳池，一个幼儿泳池，瀑布，以及各种类型的浅水和休息区域。

The heart of the project is based on a three-dimensional continuous body of water, which “flows” among the construction, allows movement over it in “bridges”, and offers a wide variety of spatial situations between the water and the built structure. The water body is used for a semi-Olympic swimming pool, a children’s pool, a toddlers’ pool, waterfalls, and various types of seating and wading areas.

建成结构
The built structures

设计围绕泳池和水体设置了不同尺寸和高度的单体结构，容纳项目中较为私密的功能。此外，这些结构也呼应了其间形成的公共空间：一个结构上设有看台，座椅“刻”在其中；另有一个结构可作为天然的冷却塔使用；还有两个结构成为了瀑布的基础，水从它们的侧墙上飞流而下。

Monolithic structures in different dimensions and heights that are arranged around the pools and bodies of water, populate the intimate functions of the project. In addition, the structures respond to the array of public spaces that they create: One of the structures has stands with seats “carved” into it. Another structure serves as a natural cooling tower. Two other structures form the infrastructure for waterfalls that flow on their side walls.

屋顶
The roof

建筑之间覆盖轻质屋顶。在屋顶和体块的交接处，设计留下开口，形成天窗，自然光可以通过这里散射入空间。屋顶与建筑若即若离，创造了各种各样的室外和有顶空间。结构并没有终止在玻璃立面处，而是继续延伸到了庭院中。巨大的滑门组成多个凹室，在室内空间和南侧阳台以及庭院之间建立起连接。

A lightweight roof is spread between the buildings. In the contact points between the roof and the built masses, there are separations in the form of skylights that contribute to the entrance of indirect natural light. The roof slides from the building to its perimeter and creates a variety of outdoor and shaded spaces around the perimeter of the building. In fact, the structure does not end with the glass vitrine, but continues towards the courtyard. Large sliding doors are arranged into niches and allow the connection of the “interior” of the construction with the balcony and the courtyard to the south.

气候和可持续建造
Climate and sustainable construction

建筑的布局首先保留了基地上所有成熟的树木，在东西两侧形成天然的荫蔽和庭院，轻质屋顶则满足了南北的遮阳需求。建筑的中部有一座天然的冷却塔，空气借助压力差从室内流向室外，途中可通过水体冷却。大跨度的屋顶在室内外之间创造了最高为1.5米的保温层，屋顶上方设置了一排光电板，可以储存太阳能。

The positioning of the structure is based on a starting point, according to which all the existing mature trees remain. These trees naturally shade the eastern and western sides, as well as the courtyard, while the lightweight roof shades the northern and southern sides. In the center of the construction, there is a natural cooling tower, which as a result of pressure differences, creates movement of air from the inside of the building outwards that is cooled in contact with the water. The large spans of the roof create a static height of up to a meter and a half that constitutes an insulated buffer between the interior and exterior. On the roof, there is an array of photovoltaic collectors.
