This structure is at once formally interesting and functional. The entire structure is organized on an orthogonal, three-dimensional grid. The structure is composed of lines arranged on this grid. The rational grid contrasts with the overall form of the structure that is fluid and irrational. Despite the porosity that is inherent to this structure, there are areas of greater line density that let less sunlight through. The canopy region is less porous, creating shade for the lifeguard. The form itself becomes a staircase at the base for the lifeguard to use. The base of the structure is hollowed out, creating a first aid area. The porous structure creates brilliant shadows throughout the day.
