Barentsbadet is a compact and comfortable swimming hall as a part of a bigger sports facility. The swimming hall includes an 25m sports pool, a 12,5m hot water and therapy pool, bubble bath, multiple water slides, climbing wall and kids pool for the youngest. The building is used for exercise and training, while being a perfect place for relaxation. The interiour is designed with light wood, large windows and acoustic panelling along the walls and ceiling.

The building adapts to the terrain and the exteriour consists of brick walls, siberian larch panels and large windows oriented south and north which makes the building blend with its surroundings.
