Forest Of Reflection / Ethan Chew

‘Forest of Reflection’ is composed of two main buildings: A leisure sports centre with an olympic sized pool, located on the Wattle St side and a 5-star restaurant/bar located next to the cliff. Engulfed in a sea of timber columns, the array creates an illusion that guides the visitor to a space of public reflection.

The ‘Forest of Reflection’ brings nature back to the city through a modern architecture, providing a space to reflect and relax in the busy city life. Located next to the lush Wentworth Park and calm Blackwattle Bay, this leisure centre allows citizens to swim in the olympic size pool, bathe in the thermal baths to relax in deep meditation in the geometrical contoured site with central reflection pond.
