该项目是BIG为奥胡斯的O4海滨区域设计的开发方案的延伸。与2002年BIG在哥本哈根建造的第一个海滨浴场一样，这座浴场也将为全球最宜居的城市之一带来不一样的体验。该浴场与旁边的海滩浴场共同为当地居民提供了在四季享受海岸生活的新方式。
Aarhus Harbor Bath is an extension of BIG’s current development plan for Aarhus’ new waterfront neighborhood named O4. Similar to BIG’s first harbor bath in Copenhagen from 2002 which has come to define the Danish capital as one of the most livable cities in the world, Aarhus Harbor Bath and adjacent Beach Bath provide new ways for the public to enjoy the water in all seasons.
BIG与城市生活研究专家Jan Gehl共同制定了方案策略：以最少的建筑实体带来尽可能多的生活体验。浴场以弧线形的体态柔和地融入场地，并围绕着泳池形成一个完整的环路。除了主泳池之外，浴场还设有圆形的跳水池和儿童泳池。50米长的健身泳池和两个桑拿池的其中之一被嵌入公共木栈道内，人们可以在栈道上享受风景和日光浴。

the harbor bath zig-zags gently into the island, extends all the way out into the harbor pool and back again.Together with urban life expert Jan Gehl, our strategy was to create a framework for maximum amount of life with the minimum amount of built substance. The harbor bath zig-zags gently into the island, extends all the way out into the harbor pool and back again. The swimmers can enjoy the circular diving pool, a children’s pool, the 50m long lap pool or one of the two saunas that are tucked underneath the public boardwalk which doubles as a viewing platform who those who prefer to stay dry.
浴场前方是一系列独立餐厅、儿童剧院、用于进行各类活动的沙滩小屋以及其它各种以生活为导向的公共空间。这些空间是最先规划好的，因此未来即将增建的私人住宅需要以满足公共领域的需求为前提。
In front of the bath, a series of freestanding restaurants, a children’s theater, beach huts for various activities and other life-creating public oriented programs were designed before the private buildings blocks which will rise in the coming years. As a result, the private residential buildings at O4 become subordinate to the needs of the public realm.

奥胡斯海滨浴场为岛上的居民和游客提供了更具吸引力和更加刺激的海滨体验，除了泳池以外，长长的木栈道将公共领域扩展到水面上，为这一历史悠久的工业区注入了新的活力。
Aarhus Harbor Bath gives the residents and visitors of the island a more engaging and adventurous waterfront experience who can use the harbor bath not only in swim shorts but as a walkway that extends the public realm into the water, breathing new life into an area historically reserved for industrial purposes.
