A Natural Swimming Pool uses the technology of the reed bed filtration system to cleanse the swimming water. Regular swimming pools use chemicals such as chlorine to kill bacteria (which can damage swimmers’ health and our ozone system), whereas a natural swimming pool uses the natural purifying properties of plants, as well as a small filter to extract surface debris such as leaves, and a small pump to keep the water circulating sufficiently through the planting area.

Flying in over the city, we are presented with a vast landscape of hard, dead surfaces. Green roofing and other living technologies offer the potential for reclaiming the footprints taken from the Earth as buildings are erected, returning the green.
