Design Challenge: Sauna facilities are complicatedly equipped with mechanical, plumbing and air-conditioning facilities, which need to be installed out of sight and planned to operate functionally, which is not easy to achieve in terms of design.A good space in the true sense of the word can only be achieved if it is compatible with functionality, not just design.
Research: The lighting is mostly indirect, and in the public sauna rooms, it looks futuristic, combined with the unusual way the wooden boards on the ceiling and walls are applied.The adjacent shower and relaxation areas are finished in black and grey-toned tiles and have a very relaxing design.Of particular note is the indirect lighting in the relaxation area. The lighting is designed to fluctuate from bright to dark and vice versa, and when you are exposed to this flickering light in a hazy state of consciousness, you can enter a world of another dimension.
Inspiration: The location is a town that has both urban and downtown faces.It is a strange and fascinating town with a hint of urbanity, but with a nostalgic atmosphere.A decade ago, saunas in Japan would have been seen as an add-on to onsen.The spaces themselves were not stylishly designed, and all saunas were plain, similar and unassuming. This space has been designed to overturn those images. There is also a bar where you can enjoy drinks and alcohol after refreshing your body and mind in the sauna.
Project Duration: Project Duration : From April 2023 to January 2024
Project location : Osaka(Japan)
Operation Flow: The sauna rooms in the private zone are smaller than those in the public zone, but have a gorgeous atmosphere. The walls are covered with coral pink and stone tiles and, as in the public zone, there is only indirect lighting.Bathrooms and relaxation rooms are also located next to each other, providing an extraordinary experience in a space that ensures complete privacy.
