Matinkylä indoor swimming pool, Espoo

Its location by the Iso Omena shopping centre and the metro station is also likely to increase the number of people using the other facilities housed in the same building. Pools are typically challenging applications in terms of their building physics, and the use of concrete requires careful planning. In Matinkylä, the interior surfaces of the pool and the pool walls’ support structures are made of stainless steel. Accoya wood surfaces have been used in interior spaces and the facade. According to the element factory, the white concrete facade with its wave-like graphical design – which perfectly reflects the purpose of the building – is the first continuous pattern application delivered by the plant.
