The
ability to reflect the landscape beyond within the water was an important
element for the composition and connectivity between the spa and Loch
Lein in the distance.
The impact of natural light ingress, coupled with the careful planning
of the artificial lighting scheme was vital. The use of recessed ceiling
downlights was minimised, so as to keep a clean soffit and limit the
amount of point source artificial lighting reflection within the water
and therefore preserve and highlight the reflectance of the landscape.
By doing this the views were exaggerated and extended as the landscape
was effectively brought forward in to the Spa.
The addition of candles and lanterns at the pool side, supported the
relationship with nature.
