Floating Sauna

Recently, we’ve seen quite a few different European hospitality spots like bed and breakfasts, Airbnbs and hotels expand their offerings and amenities with cool additions for tourists and travelers, but nothing like this creation from Milan-based Small Architecture Workshop. This is a floating sauna. The sauna was built for a Belgian couple with a bed and breakfast three hours outside of Stockholm who were looking for an environmentally-friendly way to add a sauna without disrupting the forest shoreline. The site of a former wooden pier was chosen to house the new hot house that was built from scratch over a two-week period and treated with the traditional Japanese Yakisugi technique, which burns the wood to treat it instead of using harsh chemicals. Able to house eight people in the main room with a glass wall for an absolutely gorgeous view of the lake, this is one off-the-grid rental we’d love to use.
