Now-a-days having a Jacuzzi or a hot tub in your backyard is a common practice, its no longer an exclusive deal. But imagine living in a city that looks like it’s out of the Flintstone era with natural looking thermal baths and streams flowing with gay abandonment. Dominique Perrault Architecture designed the thermal baths of San Pellegrino in Italy for a design competition and won it for their vivid representation of modern facilities with a Neolithic tone. They designed a city centered around a main building, which would add to the city’s other main structures. The main building would be the Grad Hotel and the casino.

The buildings resemble stone blocks chiseled out of the mountains. The windows on these stone-like buildings are colored to let in a mild glow for the thermal baths and other spa areas. The project is projected for completion by 2010.
