Growing up in Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital city, photographer Soo Burnell constantly found inspiration in the iconic buildings and architecture surrounding her. Following a project at Glenogle Baths, a pool she swam in as a child, Soo was reintroduced to the beauty of the architecture and the serenity found in these spaces. Soo began photographing other landmark pools in Edinburgh with the intention of capturing their striking architecture and, by contrast, the stillness housed within.

 

To The Water (New Edition)

This book contains a collection of photographs from across the UK and Europe. Each offers a stripped-back insight into how these buildings appear in their purest architectural form: when they are quiet and the water is still. They are a window into a hidden world, a glimpse into the past, and invite us to return to the water.
