Architectural Concept & Structural Design

A calming blend of Japanese minimalism and Scandinavian warmth centered around an authentic aromatic Hinoki wood or red-cedar soaking tub set within an interior stone pebble bed.

Architectural Execution Guide

  • Construct a low-profile raised platform deck clad in water-sealed vertical natural cedar or thermo-ash slats.

  • Set an oval, freestanding Japanese soaking tub (Ofuro) on the platform.

  • Recess a 12-inch wide border around the platform base filled with polished black Mexican river pebbles over a waterproof drainage sub-pan.

  • Install floor-to-ceiling vertical timber slat screens to filter natural window daylight softly across the room.

  • Place a minimalist bonsai or sculptural branch in a raw concrete urn on a low stone plinth beside the tub.
