Ann Arbor Modern Rustic Sauna

Project description

There’s nothing quite like the crackle and steady heat of a wood-burning sauna on a cold Michigan evening. For this Ann Arbor project, Sauna Bath Co. built a custom outdoor sauna that gives the homeowners an everyday retreat just steps from their back door.

The homeowners wanted a sauna that felt modern, kept the warmth of tradition and was built to last. The result is a rustic modern design that feels at home on the property.

Designed for the view

Oversized windows fill the sauna with natural light and open it up to the surrounding woods and horse pasture. From the benches, the view is quiet and unbroken, so you can settle into the heat and steam.

Traditional where it counts

Clean lines and lots of glass give the sauna its modern look. Knotty cedar throughout adds character, warmth and that familiar cedar scent. It’s a modern outdoor sauna with the soul of the traditional wood-fired saunas that came before it.
