Deep End is an immersive sensory installation that invites exploration through touch, sight, and sound. The project explores the concept of accessible and adaptive 'third spaces'. Third spaces, beyond home and work, are informal social environments that foster community and connection (Oldenburg, 1989). However, for many Disabled people, third spaces often default to medical environments like doctors' waiting rooms and outpatient clinics. Public pools have long served as adaptive third spaces existing somewhere between the social and the medical. Deep End invites you to wade into a future in which care, access, and disability culture are embedded in the design from the very beginning.
