Bespoke steam rooms: from 3D design to on-site installation
Design a steam bath Designing a hotel, spa or wellness centre requires taking into account much more than just its dimensions. Each project has its own specific characteristics and, in some cases, the geometry of the space, the access points or the design requirements make it necessary to opt for a bespoke solution.
With Passive Steam Bath, EP Elements develops bespoke steam rooms using a process that begins with 3D design and continues with the manufacture of the various components and their subsequent on-site assembly.
Why choose a bespoke steam room?
A steam room does not necessarily have to conform to a standard layout. Its design should be tailored to the characteristics of the space and the overall requirements. A bespoke system allows for different dimensions, shapes and layouts, ranging from more conventional models to designs with specialised surfaces.
Adapting the steam room to the available space
Before manufacturing the various components, it is necessary to analyse the dimensions, layout, access points and characteristics of the site where they are to be installed. This enables a solution to be devised that integrates effectively into the project and facilitates its subsequent implementation.
Designing special shapes and surfaces
Manufacturing using machined components makes it possible to create geometries tailored to the architectural design, including curved surfaces and other unique configurations. The EP Elements system It is based precisely on modular components that can be combined and customised to suit the project’s requirements.
From the 3D design of a steam room to its installation on site
The Passive Steam Bath system is based on a modular programme of standardised components that allows different steam bath configurations to be created and adapted to each project.
The 3D design is used to define the layout of the steam room and each of its components, taking into account the dimensions, geometry and specific requirements of the space. This process allows the solution to be visualised and adjusted before moving on to the manufacturing stage.
The system comprises components for the floor, walls, corners and roof, which can be combined to create different configurations. It also allows for the development of bespoke solutions featuring special shapes, curved surfaces and different types of vaults. Once the design has been finalised, the components are manufactured according to the planned configuration and transported to the site to form the structure of the steam room. In this way, a large part of the process is already defined before assembly begins.
This approach enables us to design bespoke steam rooms for a range of wellness spaces, from hotels and gyms to residential projects.
An example of this ability to adapt is the a steam room at a gym in Wimbledon, where the system was integrated into a wellness project that also included a swimming pool, a spa and a sun lounger area.
What are the benefits of a passive steam bath?
Passive Steam Bath offers an alternative to conventional steam bath construction through an industrialised, modular system. The structure is assembled using pre-designed components, which allows the solution to be adapted to the space and simplifies its installation.
A lightweight, modular structure
The system uses lightweight components rather than a conventional, heavier structure. Furthermore, as it is made up of different elements, it can be adapted to access spaces where installing a complete structure would be more difficult. EP Elements It is particularly suitable for use in attics, basements and areas with limited access.
Tailored to each project
The 3D design allows the components to be configured according to the dimensions and characteristics of the steam room. This makes it easier to develop bespoke solutions, even with curved surfaces, special elevations or different types of vaulted ceiling.
Quick and clean assembly
By using pre-configured and prefabricated components, the system is designed to facilitate the quick and tidy assembly of the load-bearing structure on site. The floor, wall, corner and roof elements are designed to make it easy to join them together during installation.
Different roof configurations
Another advantage is the ability to adapt the roof to the design of the steam room. Passive Steam Bath allows you to work with flat, straight roofs; sloping flat roofs; straight vaults; and advanced surface vaults.
