Sauna / Bathroom

Sauna/bathroom was built in unfinished attic under a steeply sloping roof. Here the height of the space was critical factor. It took careful measuring to allow both shower and sauna to have enough height. As the upper benches face the sloping roof, a window was added. It serves three purposes: increased space, better ventilation and the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful view of the village below.  Benches we built around the sauna to allow varied seating options e.g for children possibility to sit lower. Small windows from sauna let the natural light pour to shower area. Special recesses were built for bottles and the main one has a light in order to highlight the beautiful glass mosaic. Extra cupboard is hidden next to shower and special plant lights were installed to allow greenery to shower room.

A  space that is not regular and has some "difficult" features can be turned into something interesting by emphasizing exactly the "difficult" features.
