Finnleo® Sauna and Steam Press Release  Sauna delivers suite pleasures: Upscale amenity defines new level of luxury If
home design has a soul,
it might be defined
by how the physical
structure interacts
with its physical occupants.
Consider the ultimate bath suite. For most homeowners, it might include a jetted tub, oversize shower, or maybe a steam bath. But one Minnesota homeowner, a second- generation Finn, had more traditional – and decidedly Finnish – ideas in mind when it came time to design a new bath suite for his family’s home.  The
goal was to create a
space that mirrored the
functional design aesthetic
frequently seen in the
bath suites of Finnish
homes: clean lines complemented
with wood, glass and
chrome accents. Taken
individually, these elements
are surely pleasing.
But in this bathroom,
they find new harmony
when combined with decidedly
upscale amenities – including
the centerpiece, a traditional
Finnish sauna – that
introduce a more personal
sense of purpose and
underscore this bathroom’s
place in the home as
a haven for renewal.
The bathroom echoes the great traditions if Finnish design: organic materials and clean lines that are at once traditional and comforting, but progressive. Yet each design element has purpose: natural wood provides an organic backdrop for the senses, and glass block softens and diffuses, but doesn’t obscure, the view outside. 
The design is pure Finnish, but the heart of this bathroom – a custom Finnleo® sauna – should strike a chord with anyone who ever had a tough day at the office or on the golf course, or felt the stress of balancing family and career. The sauna is really the pressure relief valve, a haven of comfort and solitude that is designed to sooth, relax and reinvigorate. 
True to their Finnish roots, the family uses the sauna as an integral part of their daily routine. It serves as a center for bringing the family together, and also provides a personal sanctuary for mom and dad – a quiet space to catch up on the day’s events, or to wind down in solitude. |
