Description

The third of three notable iDevice pics from 16 days ago (1/09).

One notable riverside warming hut ready to grace the frozen, snow-covered Red and Assiniboine Rivers (the Red River Mutual Trail) this winter.

Modelled after an inverse snow globe, Bubble Beach is a lively and warm retreat on cold winter days. The transparent geodesic dome with colourful panels creates a “bubble” of warmth set on a wood pedestal base. Once inside, the dome provides visitors respite from the chill of winter through the lens of the multi-coloured, geometric dome shell. Relaxing deck chairs, a leaning palm tree, and a sand-like ground layer sprinkled with festive flamingos add vibrancy, playfulness, and encourage children and adults alike to linger and bask in the glow of “summer.” From the outside, Bubble Beach serves as a beacon of brightness and a pop of colour against the monochromatic tones of winter, a welcome recess for hikers, bikers, skaters, and skiers.

Click the link to the Forks Market warming huts gallery, and you'll also find one that "redirects" the wind, and another abstractly shaped like a bison!
