OpenAire’s newest international project is to open soon in the Republic of Georgia.
The company has designed, manufactured and installed a retractable roof enclosure to cover an Olympic-size rooftop swimming pool - aptly named 'Skypool'- which will be a key part of Batumi Plaza, an ultra-luxurious landmark development opening in the coastal city of Batumi.
Designed by Georgian architect Zakaria Kurdiani, Batumi Plaza is a six-storey facility featuring a high-end shopping mall, a multiplex cinema, restaurants, offices, conference facilities, and a 53-room, 5-star hotel.
Topping it all off is Skypool, a showpiece swimming facility with a retractable enclosure that opens up 45 per cent, offering swimmers sunlight, fresh air, and views of the Black Sea.
The enclosure measures 117ft (34m) x 199ft (60.5m), and is 26ft (8m) tall at its highest point.
It features glazed gable ends - one with operable folding doors - and bi-parting roof panels that open in good weather and close on cold or rainy days.
Amongst its other projects, Openaire covered the world's largest indoor waterpark - in Donetsk, Ukraine - with a retractable aluminium dome.
