Sauna In Flat – Thames View, London
The client has a two bedroom flat with nice Thames view from the large balcony and his initial idea was to place a ready made outdoor sauna in the balcony. The access made it impossible to bring the flat panels and no size was fitting perfectly (readymade saunas never do) so we did the next best thing.
We built a slim profile sauna with a large glass area on three sides for the sauna to be as unobtrusive as possible into the living room and still function as a generous two person sauna.
MATERIALS
The sauna interior is finished in Thermo Aspen, a premium heat-treated timber selected for its rich golden tone, smooth texture, and exceptional durability. Resistant to warping and wear, Thermo Aspen provides both beauty and longevity, making it ideal for intensive sauna use.
Every surface, including the walls, ceiling, and floating benches, was meticulously clad in horizontal Thermo Aspen, creating a harmonious and cohesive finish. The linear arrangement adds structure and rhythm, while the natural colour of the timber softens the overall look, giving the interior a warm and inviting character.
A glass sauna door framed in matching Thermo Aspen complements the timber while introducing light and visibility. This combination of solid wood and glass ensures the sauna feels bright and connected to its surroundings, while retaining a private, calming atmosphere inside.
FACILITIES
The sauna features a 1+1 bench configuration with one lower and one higher floating bench. The floating design keeps the floor clear, simplifying maintenance while enhancing the visual openness of the space. The bench proportions allow for both reclining and upright seating, offering flexibility and comfort for users.
HEATER
The hybrid design features a HUUM CLIFF 6kW single-phase heater, known for its elegant slimline form and even heat distribution. Control is managed via the HUUM UKU Glass Wi-Fi Touch Pad, enabling convenient operation and pre-heating directly from a smartphone.
