Råå Kallbadhus – Front Gate

The front gate of Rååbadarna’s open-air swimming-baths was inaugurated in relation to the refurbished Batteritorget in Helsingborg on the 30th of August, 2014.

The gate is designed in collaboration with Architect SAR/MSA Inger Thede. The figure shows the form of the stream through Råå as it were around the year of 1800. The material is perforated metal, powder-lacquered in a dark grey-blueish tone, and is made with the help of Sånna Smide in Kvidinge.
During the night time, there is a silhouette of light tracing the left side of the figure. Strings of LED lights between the perforated metal and the figure are installed by Råå Elektriska.
