The front wall of this swimming pool is covered in stainless steel tiles that can move with the wind. The resulting visual effect is interesting and really nice!
When it’s a little windy and the sun shines just right, I can stand there for many minutes watching this mesmerizing wall 🙂
It’s just stainless steel tiles hanging on steel cables as far as I can tell. Pretty low tech. I guess time would bring them down eventually - entropy is a bitch that way - but I assume the designers took wear into account and replacing the tiles is scheduled at some point.
Incidentally, the stainless steel thing is a theme in this swimming pool: the pools themselves are lined with stainless steel plates at the bottom instead of the usual ceramic tiles or vinyl lining, and lit with blue light. Really futuristic and smart-looking.

I think the issues will start with tiles getting stuck flapped open or shut individually.
Worth it though, this is amazing
