Aqua Foro Pool Club

The Aqua Foro Pool Club is a new amenity pool deck located at the Piazza Alta Apartments in the Northern Liberties neighborhood of Philadelphia, PA. The surrealist lighting concept is derived from the architect’s vision based on the ruins of classical architectural antiquities.  The architectural elements of the pool deck included arched leisure cabanas that together formed a series of archways surrounding the pool. The Lighting Practice designed a luminous environment, creating ambiance while supporting the needs of the space. This included exterior pathway lighting, highlighting key architectural features throughout the deck providing functional lighting for kitchenettes, and code-compliant lighting for the pool.
