Floating Swimming Pool

Before its water became so heavily polluted the Tagus river was a great place for swimming. Bringing back the beaches and the ability to swim in the Tagus river would avoid the need for a daytrip to the beach, and contribute to the construction of a renewed relationship between Lisbon and its river.

This improvised beaches would consist of currently unused barges regularly used for carrying freight, transformed to accomodate a swimming pool, a sandbox, a sun terrace and a bar on it’s deck.
