Coastlands Aquatic Centre

The pool complex in Paraparaumu is a great community asset. It features a 25 x 25 meter lane pool, with a moveable floor, heated to 28 degrees, a smaller programmes pool with ramp access and a water temperature of 32°c. Architecturally the building is distinguished by its glue-laminated timber (Glulam) structure which arches over the pools beneath. A translucent roof creates the feeling of being in an outdoor pool. ASC architects with engineer LHTDesign and Create were the designers.
