Bathing the Commons reimagines bathing not as a private, interior act, but as a shared ecological ritual. The project situates water as a living medium moving through bodies, landscapes, and infrastructures where cleanliness is not a fixed state but an ongoing process. By opening bathing practices to collective participation, it challenges modern notions of hygiene, privacy, and control. Set within a forested environment, the architecture operates as a light, permeable system that hosts cycles of mist, light, and bodily presence. Here, water moves, people gather, and ecology transforms, forming a commons grounded in care, exposure, and coexistence.
