Damascus・Bathroom

A small household bathhouse. Thick walls and a domed ceiling have several round openings with stained glass for light, with light beams falling into the steam; the floor and walls are marble, and in the corner there is a stone basin for water and a low sitting platform. The space is dim and warm. Avoid: opening large side windows, using contemporary shower equipment and glass partitions, making the ceiling flat, making the space bright and dry and losing the sense of steam.

一間小型的家用浴間。厚牆與圓拱頂上開著幾個嵌了彩色玻璃的圓孔採光,光柱落在蒸氣裡;地面與牆面是大理石,角落有取水的石盆與低矮的坐台。空間昏暗而溫熱。避免:開設大面的側窗、使用當代的淋浴設備與玻璃隔間、把天花做平、讓空間明亮乾燥失去蒸氣感。
