The best day at the swimming pond was seeing the international interest in our work during the IOB international conference of 2021.

living water is a food, and the body knows it, recognizes it

The biologists from government and town hall are visiting a recently finished swimming pond to see biodiversity and importance as step stone habitat.

My best working day last year, simply sublime.

I love all our swimming ponds because they are nature-based solutions.

Love the wonderful settings of our biological pool … during day, at night, in summer as in winter. Natural and soft water, chemical free, a unique experience!

PODER DAR UM MERGULHO NA NATUREZA SEM PRODUTOS QUÍMICOS É INDESCRITÍVEL!!

Schon die dritte Generation, die unseren Schwimmteich im Norden Deutschlands geniesst!

I enjoy my biological mini-pool on the roof terrace. Not big enough to swim but brilliant to refresh and enjoy the view to the sea of Ibiza
