HIRANOYA Sauna

ryokan sauna

This project proposes a sauna to be used while viewing the scenery that the ryokan Hiranoya has created over its long history. To highlight the landscape, we designed a simple and quiet space, and created a sauna space that changes according to the surrounding conditions, such as season and weather. On sunny days, light pours in, gently illuminating the interior on cloudy days. On rainy days, the sound of water flowing between the stones echoes beautifully. We feel that such natural and special scenery stimulates one's inner self.
