The ground floor features cloakrooms, showers, and changing rooms for the outdoor pool. There is also an Aqua bar counter, which serves both the outdoor and indoor swimming areas.The new building complements the surrounding environment and does not disturb its overall character. The linear arrangement and fine structure of the new building extend along Mezivodí Street and terminate at the street's endpoint. The new forecourt of the pool is located on the main pedestrian and cycling route leading to the city center. As part of its revitalization, an alley of trees was rejuvenated, paved areas were modified and urban structures were added. Pool visitors and passers-by can enter at any time and enjoy a cup of coffee on one of the outdoor terraces accessible from the lobby.The facade is softened by lining it with brick strips and gold-colored perforated sheet metal. All this is supported by views through the building, which visually connect the area of the outdoor swimming pool with the forecourt of the pool. The indoor pool chamber is turned about the building by ninety degrees and runs into the outdoor greenery. The full-surface glazing of the pool chamber enhances the feeling of connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces.

The pool history started early in the 20th century with the establishment of the river swimming spa.  The complex is sensitively set in the interface between the existing urban structure and central Kyjov Park; it is surrounded by 100-year-old trees. Because of a new operating arrangement, the existing area receives maximum use. With proximity to the park and city center, clients can discover an attractive sporting and relaxation experience.
