Once inside, visitors are met with a contrast of warmth and comfort provided by the cedar-clad surfaces. With seating designed to be facing outward, visitors are offered unobstructed views of the lake beyond through the floor-to-ceiling glass pivot door while relaxing inside the sauna. The project aims to take advantage of thermal properties found through its insertion into the natural hillside and its heavy concrete exterior shell to provide the necessary heat retention when inside the structure.

An active green roof full of local plants and foliage attempts to minimize the project's impact on the surrounding environment by distorting the separation between the natural landscape and the manmade. As the project ages and the plantings mature, the sauna will ultimately succumb to its environment and further blend into the landscape it is sited within.
