The only ‘floating’ swimming pool in the world

This swimming pool not only gives swimmers a breathtaking view of the parliament building, London Eye, the city skyline of London, but also an enjoyable experience floating in the air.
Floating 35 meters above the ground, between two new residential buildings in London’s Nine Elms commercial district, Sky Pool is expected to make you feel like you’re swimming in the sky.

With a length of 25 meters, the transparent outdoor swimming pool is designed by HAL Architects. It is made of acrylic and can hold up to 148,000 gallons of water or about 560,240 liters of water. The penetrating swimming pool hangs between two high-rise buildings in England. With four glass sides, the pool is located right next to the rooftop bar and spa services.

According to HAL Architects, it is not rigidly connected at both ends; it can slide from side to side while still retaining watertight integrity. “The vision for Sky Pool comes from a desire to cross the boundaries of construction and engineering capabilities, Ecoworld Ballymore wants to do something that has never been done before,” said Ballymore President – developer of Ambassador Gardens. . “We also wanted to cross boundaries on every aspect of the design, the transparent structure of the swimming pool that is the result of many significant advances in technology over the past decade.
