The Art of Integrated Wellness

WHAT MAKES THIS SAUNA SPECIAL

On the grounds of a spacious private estate in North Rhine-Westphalia, a dedicated wellness pavilion was created as a standalone structure, positioned separately from the main residence within the landscaped garden. The elegantly designed sauna is located at the rear of the building and adjoins a lounge area whose feature wall is clad in decorative timber slats. The sauna control panel is seamlessly integrated into this element at a convenient operating height.

The timber design language continues into the sauna cabin itself, which is slightly recessed into a wall niche and features a timber-clad ceiling. The remaining three walls are fully glazed, creating an open and inviting atmosphere while maintaining clear visual connections throughout the wellness space. Inside, the light-coloured sauna benches stand out against the darker, more rustic wall cladding, creating a refined contrast.


The panoramic glazing also frames views of the shimmering “MLine” swimming pool by RivieraPool. Its striking appearance is enhanced by Ezarri glass mosaic tiles in the colour “Ebano” from the “Iridescent” collection. The effect is further accentuated by twelve underwater spotlights, which form part of the pool’s exclusive features alongside a six-step entrance staircase and a counter-current swimming system.

There is therefore no shortage of opportunities for gentle cooling down between sauna sessions. For those who prefer a more invigorating experience, a Kneipp hose is also available.

DESIGN DETAIL

A structural column defines the transition between the pool area and the relaxation zone. It helps organise the space without completely interrupting the visual connections. As a result, the sauna remains in view while swimming, and the pool can still be seen from within the sauna, reinforcing the sense of openness throughout the wellness area.
