Los Cocoteros Rock Pool_ Sunny Qin, Y2

The Los Cocoteros Rock Pool is an architectural transition from the real Canarian nature to the man-made adaptation of nature. Located next to salt plains, the man-made structures have invited a new natural intervention; multicoloured algae which is in juxtaposition to the blacks and browns of Lanzarote. The rock pools acts as a boundary between the plains and the sea, calming the rough waves so they lap up to the bathing pools and providing a mix of harsh sunlit and dark spaces: the creation of a supernature.
