Anything can be fixed with <strong>the</strong> proper branding, right? The m<strong>ai</strong>n concourse<br />

features bright blue column wraps, creating a processional path between<br />

<strong>the</strong> two m<strong>ai</strong>n swimming areas. One of <strong>the</strong> large pool is open to <strong>the</strong> public.<br />

As soon as <strong>the</strong> Olympics were over, a massive water park was installed.<br />

Taking up roughly half of <strong>the</strong> first floor, <strong>the</strong> attraction is a commendable<br />

way to activate <strong>the</strong> building. However, it too is already falling into disrep<strong>ai</strong>r.<br />

savvy in practice designers<br />

The m<strong>ai</strong>n pool looked much like it did when Michael Phelps was on his<br />

way to eight Gold Medals. Colorful super-graphics and a deep blue pool<br />

keep eyes from wandering upward to <strong>the</strong> water st<strong>ai</strong>ned ceiling.<br />

Of course. Exit through <strong>the</strong> gift shop. This particular stretch of <strong>the</strong> building<br />

was immaculately m<strong>ai</strong>nt<strong>ai</strong>ned. Items for sale included Water Cube branded<br />

mobile phone covers, key ch<strong>ai</strong>ns, wallets, jewelry, and t-shirts.
