The Architects made a remarkable contribution to public space utilization in Liberec, Czech Republic by constructing a public sauna in their city of residence without a legal permit for construction and surprising everyone in the city. The site of an abandoned dam took 5 days and building time was 8 hours. No legal permit was issued and the entire thing was kept secret. The bank of the dam is in public ownership of the municipality; the abandoned concrete structure as well the dam itself is owned by Povodí Labe, state administrator of watercourses of the Labe river. Neither of the authorities had any idea of what was about to happen. Bravo chaps!! This is how Architecture should be presented from now on. Forget about the red tape.
