Algae

The universal bath time combines nothing more than the human being and water.

Nowadays is already easy to listen to music while you are taking your quick shower. Or,you can also relax your body and mind while you are underwater, being surrounded by differet kinds of lights and sounds that make your bath experience a meditation time.

The goal here is to deal with water in an unusual way. For me, a liquid dream is something that you have never experienced before. Something that makes you wonder about it, and makes you desire more.

Dreaming is relaxing, but can also be unexpected and exciting. Is there anyone who has never woken up of a weird dream experience?

Algae is projected to provide you the new experience of desiring water. Taste is one of our five senses, and between sight, smell,touch and listening, this may be the most related to desire.

Most of the times, if you smell something youlike, your mind tells you that you have to taste it. The idea is to combine this new experience with hydrotherapy. Hydrotherapy is the use of water to relax or heal. The main way it achieves this by cooling or heating your body wich results are improving circulation, increasing the flow of nutrients and carrying away wastes from tissues and organs. It can relieve tension and relax the muscles.

This structure of many water curtains, based on the sea algae, gives the user the oportunity to walk under them and feel different temperatures. Most of the curtains are hot water, but there are a few cold ones that smell and taste like mint. This turns the wierd sensation of different temperatures on desire to feel and taste something tricky.

As people usually don’t like to get cold while they are bathing, this should be a funny way to do it.
