The Design

About Hungarosauna Spa Flotant

Un aspect important al investiției este planificarea, sustenabilitatea și extinderea. Adaptarea la situații economice neașteptate. Acest lucru este valabil și pentru arhitectura peisajului și pentru elementele arhitecturale. Camera de aburi cu apă medicinală, apa balneară cu apă potabilă și piscina de pe suprafața lacului oferă o nouă calitate a saunei, care poate fi aici doar în Hungarosauna. Clădirea are o grindă de legătură transversală cu un cadru de stâlp din lemn. Într-un mod omogen, o statuie asemănătoare lemnului este acoperită în interior și în exterior cu suprafețe din lemn ca un trunchi de copac.

Unique Properties
The planned building is the physical closure of the linear grove, cassette, pruning, and bar. The entire area of the building delimits the beach area from the open lakeside section, the main function of the building, and the sauna is already above the water. The sauna building is accessible from the spa area and from the park and welcomes guests throughout the year.

Production Technology
The building has a wooden pillar-frame structure with cross-laminated lintel. The use of renewable energy (solar panels on rooftops) and the environmentally conscious use of materials (wood from sustainable forest management) minimize the ecological footprint of the building. The statue-like building, covered with wood inside and out in a homogeneous way, seems like a tree trunk.
Design Challenge
Scheduling, sustainability and expandability are all important aspects of the investment, just like the adaptation to unexpected economic situations. This is also true for landscape architecture and architectural elements. The sauna building standing on the lakeside and partly in the water, together with the attached floating pool of healing water and the sunbathing hill introduce a year-round new feature-group to the area. At the same time, the sauna building is operational even without the floating platform. In this case, an outdoor cold plunge tub will be placed at the end of the building.
Research
An important aspect of the investment is scheduling, sustainability and expandability. Adapting to unexpected economic situations. This is also true of landscape architecture and architectural elements. On the shore and partly in the water-filled sauna building, and the swimming pool with a water bath attached to it, a new function group can be used throughout the year for the sun. At the same time, the sauna building is functional without the float. In this case, there would be an outdoor dive at the end of the building.
Inspiration
The concept is based on opening a perpendicular axis with the aim of incorporating a less used stretch of coastline in the tourist circulation. The proposed landscaping solution, with its lakeside promenade accompanied by piers and planter boxes of aquatic plants, can meet this goal, especially in summer; but if completed with a sauna building, it can attract people throughout the year.
Project Duration
2019-2020, Hajduszoboszlo, Hungary
Operation Flow
Most of the trees lie in the lane between the fence and the lakeside promenade, forming a grove area. The lush strip provides natural protection towards the lake and provides shade and contributes to biodiversity conservation. The lakeside promenade runs through this reed, and from this corridor that is closed from the lake, three protrusions penetrate the water of the lake, letting playfulness break the monotony of the crowd, offer rest and contemplation, while also giving the opportunity to choose between sunbathing and shadow.
