Sign synthesis that permits the visitor to dip like a shard in a fascinating and intriguing fiction able to narrate itself by catapulting us into the vast and condensed aesthetic vision of Architect Simone Micheli: Volumetric dream land giving birth to the interior architecture of one of the largest and most integrated wellness resorts in Europe: "Aquagranda Livigno Wellness Park". The predominant meaning of this expressive and pertained to content research emerges from the architect's own words: "The concept around which rotates the entire development of this interior design project, is a concept of equilibrium and beauty, unique both in the morphological as in the functional point of view. Cravings so dearly sought in roman times by every human being remain to this day a matter of ongoing research. The Roman baths, locations par excellence dedicated to the psycho-physical regeneration, have abundantly oxygenated the minds of contemporary designers working in this fairy dimension, initiating chameleonic solutions ever so distant from a real balanced dimension. Nowadays, the contamination of multiple functions connected to wellness have generated pertained to content practical stories, which have deviated from the real ancient baths practice. It is necessary today, to rediscover the sleeping world of sensations through aesthetic projects, it is necessary to define new fields of balance in order to fully live our present life with truth and enthusiasm. We must attempt to unconsciously rediscover our origins. Our metropolitan system often make us unable to smile when looking at a flower, to be amazed by the wind's sound, to dream when watching a sunset, to feel exhilarated with the scent of a flowering oleander. The chaos that grips our present has deleted all the enjoyment and magic of those moments dedicated only and exclusively to ourselves: moments to relax our body and our mind, to listen and to find ourselves.
This wellness center great project will become the land for psycho-physical regeneration. A location and not just a place for the research of all those fundamental requirement which are the source of equilibrium, beauty and unity. One needs spatial areas able to inspire tranquility and harmony to the human visitor. Areas able to create the right emotional spirit, to balance our body and our mind with our soul. We need locations that make us feel positive emotions, transporting us from our daily world into a completely different new world, having myself, with all its forms and nuances , as the unique protagonist. One needs truth, emotions and transparency to discover oneself as the main actor in a dimension belonging to the universe of a possible "other" equilibrium. Living emotional experiences in spaces dedicated to self enhancement can only generate great positivity, not only physical but also mental, it can take us along the path of total harmony with ourselves and the environment around us. Transported by Eastern culture, we must not remove what is wrong in us, but simply find a balance between good and bad and to do so, we must listen to ourselves while crossing the threshold of time and space. In this order of ideas, the aim of the "Aquagranda Livigno Wellness Park" project must be regarded as a living space manifesto, depicting new worlds of well being. Unique and extraordinary beauty containers, to regain a dimension lost in time, ever so important today, and to encourage our entry in this new dimension capable to place us in direct communications with ourselves. “Aquagranda Livigno Wellness Park†is conceived as a masterpiece space where both the physical and spiritual senses are commemorated, thus permitting the visitor to live emotionally relaxing experiences and psycho-physical regeneration. The perceptual experiences are ensured to be instantaneously transformed in wonderful memory. Covering an area of around 21,000 square meters, the new complex integrates a large Spa; a wide beauty area dedicated to various body treatments and inhalations; various relaxing pools; a semi Olympic swimming pool; a fitness area; relax areas; commercial center; restaurant; bar and a guest area structured to support the new wellness tourism. Based upon the simplicity and immediacy of a gesture, the project takes life thanks to the use of colors and basic yet absolutely functional furniture designed in fluid plastic shapes. It is an interactive exciting, hybrid, location, strongly characterized by environments and functions that integrate and oppose one another, identifying a path for celebrating the relation between men, built space and wellness; between climbing theories and compositional truths; between matter, surfaces, lights, color, sound and finally water. Everything is designed to cradle the guest in this dream. In an unexpectedly black environment a gorgeous pool marked by water twirls and hydro massage is highlighted by the soft lighting, an equally unusual semi Olympic swimming pool submerges in a box dematerialized by absolute white color and by some bright graphics. Saunas, Turkish baths, ham am, relaxing pools, thalassic therapy pools, cold environment and aromatic shower, lighting effect and videos projection on the walls animate the Spa, conceived as an empty canvas on which the visitor plays an interactive role. The elegance, rigor and theatrical plastic scenery offered by the infinite vertigo characterize the aesthetics. Finally the guest area: with aggressive rooms in a conceptual yet practical design, dominated by the overlapping contrast of bright white and black tones.
