Interior and layout features

To beautifully decorate a recreation room, it is not at all necessary to turn to the services of experienced designers - most users decorate and furnish such areas with their own hands.

For example, in a relaxation room under a window, you can place a caramel corner sofa, place a rough-finished wooden table in front of it, and complete the interior with wooden cabinets (floor-mounted and wall-mounted) on the opposite wall. It is better to complete the ensemble with a checkered carpet on the floor, a tablecloth with ethnic patterns and a metal ceiling lamp.

You can lay dark large tiles on the floor in the bathhouse. In an ensemble with it, two dark armchairs with a wooden table between them will look organic, and to the side of them you can put an exercise bike.

The leisure room will turn out to be very cozy and hospitable if you place in it a fireplace with a dark wooden frame, complemented by tiles, and in front of it place a soft corner sofa in the color of coffee with milk.

Wooden beams in a contrasting color with the walls will look interesting on the ceiling. The interior should be completed with light decorative pillows on the sofa, forged lamps and a wooden table with a glass top.

See the video below for an interesting design of a bathhouse with a relaxation room.

The relaxation room is an integral part of the bathhouse. Most of the time is spent in this room and the interior should fully correspond to its tasks. Some owners make entire living rooms out of such a room.

It is preferable to decorate a large relaxation room in the style of modern classics. It involves the presence of columns, stucco on the ceiling and various arches. This is an excellent option for a brick bath. In such an interior, small fountains and a billiard table would be appropriate. For modern classics, heavy curtains on the windows and carved wenge-colored furniture would be appropriate.

Recently, the Scandinavian style has become increasingly popular. For lovers of rigor and proportionality, this option is ideal.

The walls in the relaxation room should be painted in neutral and light colors. The furniture is mainly wooden with a few wrought iron parts. A mandatory element in such an interior will be a couple of color accents. Knitted blankets will add a cozy atmosphere to the interior. A beautiful element in such a room will be a fireplace and imitation animal skin on the floor.

Furniture

Furniture for a bathhouse in a relaxation room should be selected so that it can easily withstand permanent high humidity and is not afraid of high temperatures. And you should not frankly overdo it with its quantity: you need to proceed from how many people will most often be in the room.

Most often it is proposed to place a table exactly in the middle of the room, and around it there are chairs in the required number. If there is enough usable space, you can make room for a comfortable chair. It is also appropriate to place benches along the walls - this will help save space if it is not replete with free square meters.

A separate point is shelves for accessories and racks. The plan of any bathhouse with a large relaxation room must necessarily reflect this point: it is convenient to place a considerable number of different things on them. However, if the room is small, then you should limit yourself to a minimum of shelving, otherwise they can easily cause inconvenience. Comfort is generally a very fragile thing, so even the most obvious little things need to be taken extremely seriously.

Lighting

Already based on the direct functionality of the room, we can make an unambiguous conclusion about the optimal nature of lighting.

calm;
unobtrusive;
scattered;
variable.

Leave the idea of the brightest lamps for something else, but for the relaxation room in the bathhouse you need to choose medium-intensity LED light bulbs that will create quiet, but very cozy lighting. As a rule, a chandelier acts as the central light source, and several wall sconces complement it, creating the desired lighting mood.

In principle, if the room is small, then you can limit yourself exclusively to one, the most important light source, and abandon all other elements. But this is a matter of your taste, as they say.

Finishing

Above, we have already touched on one important criterion that you need to arm yourself with when choosing materials for finishing the inside of a bathhouse. It also works with the break room. This is environmental safety. And even though this is far from a steam room with its critical temperature conditions, the general level of humidity and periodic temperature fluctuations somewhat narrow the range of suitable options. In addition, you must keep in mind the fact of the necessary visual harmony.

The best, and perhaps the most common, option for finishing the inside of a recreation room is lining. The photo shows several options for baths using it.

An alternative option is finishing with stone or brick. It looks solid, and in terms of performance characteristics there are no questions here. The only thing is that it is expensive, but if you have enough funds, then why not? You can avoid the monotony of texture with the help of wood carved plates - some panels literally beg to be added to the bath interior!

We offer you a small selection of photos with the interiors of a bathhouse and interesting rest rooms, which reflect all the moments that we talked about above.

Materials

Features of arranging a relaxation room in a bathhouse depend on the material used to decorate the room. There are several types of cladding.

Lining

It is considered the most popular material for finishing bath rooms. Advantages:

environmental friendliness;
attractive look.
good thermal insulation qualities;
easy processing.

Wood deteriorates when exposed to moisture. Mold and mildew may form on surfaces. To protect against external factors, you need to use special antiseptics.

Tree

To hide various wall defects and perform finishing, finishers use wooden panels made from edged boards.

Before installation, they need to be sanded to eliminate unevenness.

Stone

Advantages:

high strength, durability;
natural (natural) appearance;
large selection of shades;
resistance to mechanical damage;
immunity to temperature changes and prolonged exposure to moisture.

The main disadvantage of the stone is its large mass and the high price of natural varieties.

Drywall

Using plasterboard sheets you can make decorative niches and change the layout, but ordinary material will not work. You need to choose drywall that is resistant to moisture.

Block house

These are panels that imitate rounded timber. Suitable for finishing buildings inside and outside. Block house is an environmentally friendly material that does not emit harmful substances during operation.

Peculiarities

Many people believe that the main room in a bathhouse is the steam room. In fact, this is not the only area that plays an important role in such a construction. The baths have very hospitable rest rooms, where you can feel comfortable and cozy.

In the relaxation room located in the bathhouse, you can place various interior items. In such conditions, ensembles made in different styles are appropriate. Decorative items and properly selected lighting fixtures are also important here, as in ordinary living rooms.

For such areas, you can choose different finishing materials. For example, it could be wood, tiles, reliable wallpaper or even paints and varnishes . The main thing is to purchase high-quality products that will last as long as possible in a bathhouse.

A special feature of the design of a cozy corner for relaxation is that all the parts and finishes in it must be moisture resistant.

This is explained by the fact that such buildings most often maintain a high level of humidity. Objects and finishing materials that are afraid of dampness and moisture risk quickly becoming unusable under such conditions.

The sauna relaxation area can contain not only a soft sofa with a fireplace. This could be a chic billiard table, carved wooden benches, cozy armchairs with a coffee table and many other pieces of furniture - it all depends on the size of the room and its layout.

When decorating a leisure room, experts recommend using lamps with warmer light , since such a room should be calm and comfortable. It is permissible to use a small number of economical LED light bulbs, which create soft and uniform light in the space.

A tasteful rest room has some advantages:

You can fully relax in it immediately after spending time in the steam room.
Here you can place not only a sofa, but also many other objects (for example, a large wooden table with chairs or a bench).
When leaving the steam room, you won’t have to run from one building to another, since everything will be “at hand.” This is especially important when it comes to the cold season.
Since in a bathhouse, furniture and decor items made from natural and high-quality materials are most often used, we can safely talk about the environmental friendliness of such a recreation area.
When decorating a cozy corner, it is possible to turn to different stylistic directions. For example, it could be the style of a Russian bathhouse or a rustic country style.
In the relaxation room you can place many different things that are necessary when visiting the bathhouse. For example, some clothes, towels and other similar items.

Leisure rooms do not have any serious disadvantages, but some of their shortcomings are worth mentioning:

Projects for such premises need to be developed especially carefully and scrupulously. It is important to correctly arrange all the details so that the space is comfortable.
In bathhouse conditions, a high level of humidity always remains, which can negatively affect both the furniture and the decoration in the rest room. To avoid such a problem, you need to purchase waterproof products, which often cost more than regular ones.
To decorate these premises, it is necessary to additionally install steam, hydro and thermal insulation. This can take a lot of free time.

A modern bathhouse can be one-story or two-story with a relaxation room on the second or first floor. Often, these buildings are equipped with cozy bedrooms and kitchens, if space allows. More expensive buildings have separate spaces with a swimming pool and barbecue.

A wonderful relaxation area can be created in a cozy bathhouse with an extension, terrace or veranda. Relaxing in such a building brings a lot of pleasure; bathhouses with verandas are especially relevant in the warm season.

However, recreation rooms in bath buildings differ not only in their content, but also in finishing materials and dimensions.

Material

To decorate the walls, floor and ceiling in a leisure room, it is permissible to use various materials, which will be discussed below.

Lining

This material is environmentally friendly and safe - it does not have a negative impact on human health. In addition, the lining boasts good thermal insulation properties. This finishing is made from pine, oak, aspen, linden and other types of wood .

The material will have to be treated from time to time with protective compounds - this will prevent it from deteriorating and rotting in conditions of high humidity.

Wooden shields

These materials are most often used when decorating the ceiling in a leisure room. Such canvases seamlessly hide various imperfections of the ceiling bases, making them perfectly smooth and aesthetically pleasing. Wooden panels are installed on a pre-insulated surface.

Boards

Wooden boards can be used to finish the floor in a bathhouse. It is advisable to choose well-polished materials, the thickness of which is at least 3.5 cm. Do not forget about covering such floors with stain or clear varnish.

Stone

The rest rooms, decorated with stone, look rich and presentable. This material not only has an excellent appearance, but is also not afraid of humidity, high temperatures and mechanical damage. Most often, the walls in baths are decorated with granite, cobblestone, sandstone or marble .

Of course, finishing with natural stone will cost the buyer a tidy sum. In addition, the weight of such cladding is often quite significant. Before you start installing stone parts, you need to make sure that the walls in the leisure room are quite reliable and strong.

If you don’t want to spend a lot of money on finishing, then you can use artificial stone instead of natural stone. For example, in such a setting, brick-like coverings look interesting.

Porcelain tiles

This strong and durable material can be used to decorate the floors in the recreation room. Many consumers choose porcelain stoneware because it is not afraid of mechanical damage, heavy loads and temperature changes.

This finishing material is flexible. If you decided to decorate a relaxation room for them in the bathhouse, then it is better to choose canvases based on non-woven fabric, plaster or fiberglass . Ordinary paper materials will quickly become unusable if glued to them in such conditions.

Drywall sheets

When choosing plasterboard for lining the leisure area in a bathhouse, it is better to give preference exclusively to moisture-resistant canvases . Simple gypsum plaster sheets do not tolerate high humidity, so they will not last long in a sauna building.

These materials should be installed on a frame structure made of wood or metal.

Dimensions

Modern bathhouses in the country have different dimensions. They come in both large and small. The common dimensions of these buildings are the following dimensions: 1.9x2.1 m; 2.6x2.5 m; 3x3 m; 3x4 m; 3x5 m; 3x6 m; 4x4 m; 4x5 m; 4.5x6 m; 4x6 m; 5x5 m; 5x6 m; 6x3 m; 6x6 m; 6x8 m.

Zoning

The room can be divided into several zones:

dining room;
a place to relax with upholstered furniture;
games room with billiard table;
kitchen with bar counter;
free area for dancing.

After visiting the steam room, a person needs to cool down. It is important to properly arrange the rest room. To zone the room you can use:

plastic, glass partitions;
large cabinets;
folding or sliding doors;
thick curtains.

If the dressing room is small, 1 table, 2 benches, and a wardrobe will be enough.

Project of a bathhouse with a relaxation room

Often a relaxation room is built in front of the steam room with access to a dressing room or other premises. According to professional designers, this option is optimal and comfortable for visitors to the bathhouse.

But many designers do not recommend installing these accessories because they clutter everything around.

After all, such a relaxation area should calm a person and restore his body after visiting the steam room, and not burden him with unnecessary items. The finishing of the bath ceiling and walls is done in bright but eye-pleasing colors.

Diffused light is also installed here. Then blinds or roller blinds are hung on the windows.

The optimal size of a bathhouse with a relaxation room

When building a bathhouse, many factors are taken into account, including the size of the site. A small room is built for 2-3 family members, and a large house is built for gatherings with a group of 6-8 people.

When constructing a bathhouse, the following nuances are taken into account:

the steam room should have at least 1.5 square meters. m for 1 person;
washing room - a corner with a shower, a shower stall or an overturning shower bucket takes up 1.5 m;
A small amount of free space is allocated for a room for a group of 6 people - 3x5 m.

Thus, the optimal size of a relaxation area for 4-6 people is 5x5 m. If you have additional funds, you can install a washing complex with a jacuzzi and a large swimming pool.

Project of a bathhouse with a rest room and toilet

The bathhouse is installed on any foundation. The entrance to this house is made from the south side so that when leaving the vestibule the door can be opened outward.

The bathhouse consists of 5 rooms:

So, according to the 4x4 project, the total area of the bathhouse is 16 square meters. m, vestibule - 0.81 sq. m, and recreation areas - 4.86 sq. m. The last bath room has an insulated wooden floor.

The recreation area is usually separated from the vestibule by partitions of such thickness - 94-100 mm. Mineral wool, expanded clay or extruded polystyrene foam are used as room insulation, and the vapor barrier is made of foil paper.

Bathhouse as a guest house

Modern bathhouses - guest houses - are made of two floors and made of environmentally friendly timber. These houses have a shower, toilet, small kitchen and vestibule. Moreover, as little free territory as possible is allocated for all this.

And the rest of the area is divided approximately in the following proportion: 50% - into the font, swimming pool, steam room, locker room and shower, and 50% - into the bedroom for bathhouse visitors and a wide recreation area.

This guest house is made fireproof. Indoor furniture is protected from excess steam and moisture. Therefore, a vestibule must be installed between the exit to the living area and the steam room.

Lighting

The level of comfort depends on the lighting in the dressing room. Peculiarities:

It is better to install a row of lamps around the perimeter of the room than one large one in the center.
It is not recommended to use neon or high-power bulbs. The first ones give off an unpleasant cold light, the second ones make you strain your eyesight.
You can place an LED strip around the perimeter of the room, and install 4 separate lamps inside.

The dressing room should have large windows that will provide natural light throughout the day. Lamps along the contour can be decorated with fabric.

Advice on how to arrange a relaxation room in a bathhouse

The relaxation room in the bathhouse will highlight the individuality of the owners.
The dressing room, washing room and steam room were considered integral parts of the bathhouse; the relaxation room appeared relatively recently. Until now, a relaxation room in a bathhouse is considered a luxury and is only built in large rooms. But a good room where you can relax, drink fragrant tea and sit with a group in the bathhouse is necessary. We will tell the most advanced readers about how to arrange a relaxation room in a bathhouse, for whom a bathhouse is not only a place where you can take a steam bath.

How to choose a design

Wood is traditionally used in the interior of the bathhouse.
They try to decorate bath rooms in the same style; the rest room should not stand out in style. Although if the owner is not afraid to experiment and sees each bathhouse room in his own way, there is no need to be afraid. The area of the rest room can be from 6 m², but it is calculated depending on the number of washers (minimum 3 m² / 1 person). Too small and cramped will not allow you to sit comfortably and take a break between procedures.

The most common material for finishing a recreation area is wood. Wood of any species is suitable, the main thing is that it has useful properties. It is not necessary to choose moisture-resistant and heat-resistant varieties, since the resting place does not provide for much contact with water. The temperature in the room is usually comfortable from 20 to 25°C. Humidity is not higher than 30%. Before finishing, the wood is coated with antiseptic and water-repellent compounds (Senezh sauna), so the walls will last longer.

Expensive is not always beautiful

Abashi in the decoration of a bathhouse looks expensive and original.
Wood finishing and the size of the owner's wallet are always directly related. Thus, expensive varieties: Abashi, oak, aspen are beyond the means of the average family. In terms of benefits, Abashi wood is one of the best. The color of expensive wood ranges from light yellow to dark brown. The decoration looks rich. The quality of the wood is high and it tolerates humidity and high temperatures well. But what if Abashi, oak and aspen are beyond your means?

Baths built in the northern regions can be decorated with cedar. Its wood has a velvety texture, rich color and unique aroma. Essential vapors from cedar can have a beneficial effect on the human nervous system. And relaxing procedures are best carried out under the enchanting aroma of oils.

For other regions, you can use linden or pine, but cover it with waterproof varnishes or tinted impregnations. It will be difficult to distinguish the external finish from oak or mahogany. Yes, this one will last less, but there will be an incentive to change the situation more often. The price of linden and aspen is 3–4 times lower.

How to furnish a rest room

Traditionally, bath furniture is made of wood.
Furniture for rest rooms is selected depending on its size and finishing style. So, for a large room, you can place a table made of solid wood in the center. It is better to select benches, chairs and other interior elements from the same wood.

A mandatory attribute should be a mirror and a shelf for various creams, masks, herbal infusions and oils for the steam room. This will give the room in the bathhouse comfort and will please the hostess.

You should not place sofas made of tapestry or leather in the room. Over time, moisture will penetrate inside and the furniture will quickly become unusable. It is also not recommended to use natural carpets and animal skins on the floor.

Household appliances - to be or not to be

An electric samovar and a TV will help you relax in the relaxation room.
Household appliances in the rest room can be used provided there is an outlet. Thus, an electric samovar can become a real table decoration and will quickly warm up tea. A microwave oven will help warm up snacks and hot dishes when a large group gathers. A small refrigerator will keep drinks cold.

It is not recommended to use a hairdryer, electric tongs, or open boilers in the relaxation room of the bathhouse. Do not forget that the main decoration and furniture are made of wood and in the event of a fire it will be difficult to avoid a large fire.

It is better to install the outlet with moisture-resistant protection, and a specialist should conduct the electricity.

Living room lighting

Lighting for the rest room can be:

Natural.
Artificial.
Mixed.

Features of artificial lighting

There is no need to use heavy-duty devices to illuminate the rest room. A person will rest and relax here, which means the light should be soft and not irritating. It’s good to use multi-level light when a more powerful lamp is installed in the center and there are sconces along the walls. You can use just a separate area or turn on wall lights and sit in the twilight.

Modern spotlights are perfect for a small relaxation room in a bathhouse. They can be placed so that the light falls on certain areas: table, sofa, mirror. Light bulbs can be chosen with warm golden light or, on the contrary, cold and white.

Features of natural lighting

A small window will provide light into the relaxation room.
Natural light includes light from windows. You should not have too many windows in the rest room if there is no beautiful garden or pond behind the walls. One small window is enough, so there will be no drafts into the room, but it will not be difficult to ventilate if desired. To protect from prying eyes, wooden or metal blinds are used. Roller blinds made from natural fabrics also look good.

Curtains will add coziness and personality to the room.

Live fire indoors

The presence of a source of live fire will add warmth and personality to the relaxation room. Every working person dreams of sitting after a steam room with a cup of tea by the fireplace. Looking at the fire, a person relaxes and receives a charge of strength and energy. The fireplace can be not only using natural wood, but also electric. In some interiors, an imitation fireplace is created, this creates an atmosphere of calm.

You can use a stove whose woodshed opens into the rest room. The door of a modern stove is made of tempered glass and the design looks no worse than a fireplace.

A live fire in the room will additionally reduce humidity and serve as a source of heat. An example of a fireplace in a bathhouse can be seen in the video:

For noisy groups, billiards or air hockey are often installed in the recreation room. By hanging the TV, you can use karaoke. But such gadgets are available for large rooms of more than 30 m².

It’s good to hang brooms, wooden ladles, pine cones, and dry herbs on the walls. This will add additional ambiance and serve as a natural flavoring.

How to arrange a relaxation room in a bathhouse is decided by each person individually. But remember, the room should have a relaxing effect and create relaxation. Only in this way will the bathhouse become not only a place for washing, but a favorite place to relax for the whole family. And the photos in this article will help readers decide and choose their own unique room style.

Room color

To get more pleasure from visiting the bathhouse and to completely relax, you need to choose a color scheme. It is better to choose warm, calm tones. Bright, variegated colors strain the eyesight.

Based on the developments of scientists, we can distinguish several colors that are better perceived by the subconscious:

peach, pink - calm;
yellow - optimism, solar warmth;
gray is a neutral shade;
white - cleanliness (suitable for decorating different rooms in the bath; this color cannot be used in large quantities).

If you want to add bright colors, you can make a few separate touches on the walls. Of the cool tones, the best options are pale green, blue, and lilac.

Relaxation room in the bathhouse: interior design, decoration, furniture

The most relaxing place is the relaxation room in the bathhouse. The interior design must be especially well thought out in order to visually please and soothe the eye, and functionally allow you to truly relax.

Required attributes of the waiting room

The design of a bathhouse with a relaxation room includes traditional components, and the first is a resting place. After you have steamed, you need to sit down or lie down, as the pressure in the body jumps significantly. A completely horizontal position is contraindicated, because most sun loungers and benches have a bent base. Traditionally, a Russian bathhouse is a relaxing place for a group, so the front room is often furnished with a table and the necessary elements for a snack. The last thing we do when leaving the bathhouse is to rinse with cool water, so the ideal design of a bathhouse with a relaxation room involves the presence of a swimming pool or, in extreme cases, a shower.

Required components of the dressing room:

place to rest: benches, armchairs, chairs or deck chairs;
table and cabinets;
shower or basin, washbasin.

All other components are additions to the required minimum, which we will consider below.

Materials

In order for the temperature in the room to maintain the required value, it is thermally insulated. The best material for wall upholstery in this case is wood. Classic interior design involves finishing with rough softwood. The cheapest material is pine. In order for the bathhouse to serve you for many years, you need to take care of the condition of the interior walls. The wood must first be impregnated with a special mixture, and then varnished, but only in the dressing room. For these purposes, choose heat-resistant materials with the lowest toxicity levels, since one of the hottest and stuffiest places is the relaxation room in the bathhouse. The interior design of the second option is reminiscent of the design of foreign saunas, since the wood chosen is smooth, the panels are symmetrical and even. In general, this style corresponds to environmentally friendly minimalism and creates a mood of luxury if the room is decorated correctly.

Even the furniture in the bathhouse is traditionally made of wood, but it is better to choose hardwood because of its strength. Do not overuse textiles: moisture damages the upholstery of chairs.

Furnishing the dressing room

The basis of the dressing room is comfortable furniture. At the project development stage, you need to decide what exactly you want to furnish your interior with. If it includes voluminous sun loungers and tables, it is better to provide a space of at least 12 square meters. The first rule: furniture for the rest room should be comfortable and very practical. Natural materials are a priority: wood, linen capes, and the like. Doctors do not recommend immediately lying down in a horizontal position after the steam room, so the dressing room is usually furnished with comfortable wooden benches and sun loungers.

A typical attribute of a rest room is a table and chairs or armchairs. We do not recommend furnishing the room with upholstered furniture: steam penetrates into the dressing room. To make hard furniture more comfortable, use special pillows and textile covers that can easily be taken out and dried separately from the set itself. If the space does not allow you to install a full-fledged table, equip the room with stepped benches on which you can sit and lay out dishes.

Features of space arrangement

As a rule, the largest part of the room is the relaxation room in the bathhouse. The 3x3 interior design is classic for most country projects, when the building is built specifically for these purposes. 9 square meters can become quite spacious if the room is properly furnished. Most projects involve a circular arrangement of furniture: a table and chairs are located in the center (if space allows), and a bench or sun loungers are located along the perimeter of the walls. If the space is really about 10 square meters, it is difficult to fit a pool into it. An alternative is to equip the room with a small shower or washbasin.

The most important thing is to properly hydro- and thermally insulate the walls. When calculating the free space for room equipment, do not forget to take this indicator into account. Insulating walls takes up a lot of space. The last piece of advice is functional shelving, bedside tables and hangers on which you can store clothes, towels, hygiene items and bath accessories: a cap and a broom.

Lighting

The most peaceful place is the relaxation room in the bathhouse. The interior design must correspond to this. Properly adjusted lighting can force the body to completely relax and recover from the heat. The priority is a variety of not too bright LED bulbs that do not strain the eyesight and create a soft and even light. A ceiling completely covered with them creates a feeling of warmth and looks like a starry sky. LED lamps themselves last a long time and consume a small amount of energy. If you connect them in several lines to separate switches, you can really play with the atmosphere using lighting, adding it at friendly gatherings and reducing it on a romantic evening. Tip: to create an ambiance, just add a few wall lamps or sconces.

Color spectrum

Wood of any species and shades - this will look best in a relaxation room in a bathhouse. Interior design primarily involves gentle, natural and calm shades. The classic combination is brown, green and sand. This range allows you to give any room the spirit of “that same Russian bathhouse”, with steam, vodka and brooms. If we talk about European solutions, then the burgundy color of wine is often added to rest rooms; it plays great in the twilight and emphasizes the structure of the wood. The red color scheme dilutes the sandy shades and adds gloss and luxury to the room.

But the traditional color for relaxation is green. It irritates the retina the least, allowing you to relax in the best possible way. An alternative is blue shades that fit organically into a bathhouse or sauna, especially if the room is equipped with a shower or swimming pool.

Sauna or Russian bath?

A bathhouse with a relaxation room and a terrace is essentially the same as a sauna, only furnished in a rustic style. In a sauna, a steamed back is unlikely to be whipped with a broom. Bathroom accessories are the main difference. A fully equipped room, upholstered in wood along the entire perimeter, with classic benches and even semicircular beams, can also be called a sauna if it has a swimming pool and a room with a steam room. But traditional brooms hung around the perimeter will help create the right atmosphere. Another difference is the minibar and table, which are rarely found in a European sauna. The main thing is to correctly place all the components in a small space, and if possible, equip the room with a pool, even a small one, to simply take a dip and gradually move away from the hot room.

Interior Design

In our minds, a room completely upholstered in wood is a bathhouse, a relaxation room. The finishing of additional areas may be different, but preference is always given to only natural materials, including stone. You should start arranging your bathhouse at the design level in order to calculate the free space and manage it correctly after insulating the room.

Pay attention to the main attributes: benches, table, shower or pool, washstand. Pay special attention to the little things: the color of the walls, the location of the lighting. Don’t forget about comfort: equip the walls and corners with comfortable cabinets and hangers, make all textiles replaceable.

Recommendations

To like the result and have more pleasure from visiting the bathhouse, you need to listen to the advice of experienced finishers and bathhouse attendants:

If the floors are concrete and you don’t want to wear shoes, you can install a heated floor system. The temperature regulator is located in any convenient place.
If the oven has an external channel, it is better to buy a model with a transparent glass door. It will look like a fireplace, and you can control the load on the firebox.
It is better to decorate all rooms under the same style.
It is not recommended to use bright lamps.
To make the interior cozy, you don’t need to clutter it with a large number of decorative elements.
It is better to avoid experiments with mixing different colors, especially bright and provocative ones.
Sockets and switches should be at a convenient height.
Before operation, the wiring must be checked and completely insulated.
Communications need to be hidden in the walls and floor so that they do not interfere with bathhouse visitors.
The dressing room should have large windows.
It is advisable to make a small vestibule near the entrance so that visitors can leave their outerwear and shoes. You can fence it off with wooden panels or two wardrobe cabinets.
To provide more natural light, you can install display windows.
Walls look beautiful when decorated with tree cuts.
Color transitions should be smooth so that a person does not get hung up on them.
For finishing you need to choose materials that are resistant to humidity and temperature changes. In the dressing room, cold air coming from the street and hot air from the stove are mixed.

When visiting a bathhouse, a person wants to get maximum pleasure from bathing procedures and relax. Since visitors spend most of their time in the dressing room, the layout and decoration of the room needs to be carefully thought out - choose the design style, furniture, colors, etc.

The process of painting a room

The process of painting the inside of a bathhouse begins with thoroughly sanding all surfaces to be treated - these are walls, floors and furniture, if necessary. After this stage, all construction dust or shavings must be removed from the room, as they will interfere with the quality of the painting process. You can wipe the surfaces with a cloth; it is better to leave it dry or vacuum it.

Paint can be applied with a roller or brush

Before applying colored paint, it is best to treat the wood with compounds that will protect against fire and mold. After they dry, you can decorate the room with the chosen color of the dye. Work is best carried out in a well-ventilated area with a constant air temperature.

This place is not cluttered with massive furniture or decor. This way the passage remains clear.

The rest room usually has 3 zones:

place for cooking;
dining area;
relaxation area.

Bath curtains create a feeling of security. Sometimes zoning of this place is carried out at the stage of construction of the bathhouse. Then they make a special partition wall.

The kitchen is separated from the dining area by a bar counter or a wide countertop. A fireplace is placed in the center of the room, which decorates the interior design.

Color spectrum

The rest room is decorated with light and pastel colors. These tones create a light and cozy atmosphere that relaxes guests.

Orange, light brown or yellow shades bring peace of mind and warmth to this zone. Furniture for such a place is selected according to the color of the cladding.

Various textiles are hung on the windows and walls, which make the room more comfortable and soft. Window curtains, sofa throws, soft pillows and tea towels create a feeling of home.

The walls are decorated with paintings or individual photographs, and open shelves are installed in the corners. Small souvenirs are placed on them: cups, figurines or vases.

Ease of decoration in Art Nouveau style

Lovers of lightness and ease will love modernism. Distinctive characteristics of the style are:

abstractness and symmetry of forms, images and drawings;
predominance of floral patterns;
neutral and pastel colors;
curvature of lines of decorative elements.

To provide soft and unobtrusive lighting, it is recommended to choose small spotlights or elegant wall sconces for the room. Decorative figurines made by yourself will look original in the interior.

Stylish printed wallpaper, decorative paints and plasters, natural materials, porcelain stoneware and ceramic tiles, and laminate boards are suitable for finishing.

To refresh an interior furnished in the Art Nouveau style, you can add floral components - floral ornaments and living plants.

Steam room furniture

Not a single steam room can do without a shelf - such wooden flooring is usually made of two or three tiers, about 65 cm wide and about 185 cm long. Moreover, if your height or the height of your family members (and frequent future visitors to the steam room) is above average, we will make shelves 220 centimeters long - so inconveniences will not spoil anyone’s holiday. Depending on what kind of room we are decorating, we can make the shelves straight, L- or U-shaped, folding or stationary - all this is optional.

For convenient placement on the upper tier, we will make special benches (their standard width is up to 45 cm). Also important attributes of the interior are headrests and footrests. The first allow you to lie comfortably on a shelf so as to reduce pressure on the spine; and the latter are used to better warm up the legs.

In the washroom, a bench, stools and shelves will become an integral part of the interior. We also traditionally attach a reliable hanger for clothes and bath accessories: towels, washcloths, hats.

How to do it yourself?

Even if you don’t have much experience, you can make simple bath furniture with your own hands.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with Country style bedroom: 40 photos, design guide

Tools that will be needed along the way:

hammer;
plane;
drill;
a circular saw;
pliers;
roulette;
square;
Grinder;
clamps;
set of cutters;
hacksaw.

First you need to make a table. You will need:

boards 30 x 145 mm and 40 x 250 mm;
wooden slats 40 x 40;
bolts and “curly nails”;
antiseptic primer.

Assembly is carried out in a simple sequence:

Saw boards measuring 30 x 145 mm into four pieces of 1.2 m each. Make flanks on them on the right and left at an angle of 45 degrees. Stepping back 10 cm from the end of the blanks, cut off the excess material.
Sand the workpieces properly. Coat everything with an antiseptic and let the boards dry.
Fold the blanks crosswise.

Attach our blanks with bolts. Place the legs at a distance of a meter. From the boards that are left, make and attach two spacers.
From boards of a different size, cut or saw three pieces measuring 1.75 m in size. Process the prepared pieces for the tabletop with a sander. Apply antiseptic and allow to dry.
The slats should be divided into two parts measuring 77 cm. Treat with an antiseptic primer. Connect all the boards of the tabletop.
Turn the finished tabletop over. Place it on the legs of the future table. Use self-tapping screws to secure the result.

Now you can safely use your handmade creation in your bathing life.

Console table

Materials required for work:

five boards 30 x 200 mm, 0.8 m long;
block 40 x 50 mm, length should be 1 m;
two bars 40 x 50 mm, 0.75 m long;
self-tapping screws

Assembly must be carried out in the following order:

Choose a place where you will place your future table. Make a mark approximately 0.7–0.8 m from the floor level. Using it, when using a level, the width of the table surface is determined and measured.
Process the bars with a sander thoroughly, without missing a detail. Coat the boards with an antiseptic primer. Dry the materials thoroughly.
You need to create a tabletop from the existing boards. Fasten the boards using 0.75 m long bars. One of them needs to be attached to the table top with a distance of 7 cm from the end. The other is attached exactly along the edge.
Place the assembled tabletop against a mark on the wall. The crossbar should be as close to the wall surface as possible. Attach the tabletop with self-tapping screws.
We make the installation. Place the block under the table surface. Mark the locations of future cuts and make notches at an angle of forty-five degrees. This is necessary to completely press the bar against the wall. We install the support in the intended place, securing it with self-tapping screws.

Comfortable bench

Naturally, a bathhouse needs seating. Therefore, the next thing you should learn to make is a bath bench.

Materials for production:

three boards 30 x 45 x 1500 mm;
two wooden planks 1460 x 10 x 20 mm;
two wooden boards 420 x 260 x 30 mm;
one wooden board 1240 x 30 x 200 mm;
glue for working with wood;
self-tapping screws

Progress:

In the first board from the list, use a cutter on the side to make a groove 10 mm deep. Do this work with all the boards. On one of them, grooves need to be made on both sides.
Lay out the already milled boards in a row, placing a board with two recesses in the middle. Coat all existing grooves and strips with glue. Place them inside each other. Press the boards tightly against one another and secure the resulting “shield” with clamps.
When using a jigsaw, we make semicircular cuts fifty millimeters deep. We do the same work with the second stand.
On a board 1240 mm long, stepping back ten centimeters from the edges, we draw two parallel lines across. Draw a perpendicular from the middle of the lines. We will get a square. It must be cut out using a hacksaw.
Sand the stands and the resulting beam. Treat them with an antiseptic and let them dry thoroughly.
Assemble all the elements and fasten them with self-tapping screws.
