Sauna bathing is an essential part of Finnish culture and national identity. There are only 5,4 million Finns but 3,3 million saunas. Public saunas used to be common in bigger cities but now that most new apartments have sauna of their own, public saunas have decreased dramatically in number.

　　桑拿浴是芬兰文化和国家形象中不可或缺的一部分，仅有540万人口的芬兰却拥有着330万个桑拿。然而伴随着拥有独立桑拿房公寓的逐渐普及，曾经随处可见的公共桑拿房正在急剧的减少。

There are only a couple remaining. As a sense of community is becoming a more and more important part of new urban culture, many new public saunas are being planned. With Löyly (meaning the steam that comes when you throw water on hot stones in a sauna) Helsinki will offer foreign visitors a public sauna experience all year round - a must when visiting Finland.

　　这样的桑拿房所剩无几。正当社区意识在全新的都市文化中变成了越来越重要的一部分的时候，许多公共的桑拿房层出不穷。Löyly意思是当置身于桑拿房的时候，把水洒在炽热的石头上时，热蒸汽随之产生。这是在芬兰不可或缺的一道风景，全年对外开放。

Architecture建筑 

The site is unique. Being less than two kilometers away from the city centre, it is very central but at the same time the landscape is like in the outer archipelago. The plot is situated in a future coastal park that will be part of a broader “Helsinki park” connecting the capital city to the sea. The building was designed to be slim and elongated so as not to cut the narrow park strip. The volume is kept as low as possible so that it doesn’t block views from the future residential blocks. Instead of building a conventional building, the sauna is developed into an easy-going, faceted construction that is more part of the park than a conventional building. When the wooden building turns gray, it will become more like a rock on the shoreline.

　　建筑的场地十分独特，距离城市中心不到两公里却同时有着如同偏远海岛一般的宽阔景观视野。这不远的将外，这片顺着海岸延伸的场地将成为赫尔辛基公园的一部分，连接首都城市和大海。狭长型顺着场地纵向伸展，以避免切断同样狭长的公园空间。低矮的建筑体量为未来住宅区让出了宽阔的海景视野。轻巧、碎片化的设计让其完全融入了公园景观中，而不再是传统意义上的建筑。在经历了时间冲刷之后满满暗淡的色彩让其将如同耸立在海岸边的一块岩石。

Spatiality空间

The building consists of two parts: public saunas and a restaurant; different areas are conceived as spaces within a space. The saunas and public spaces open up to the sea, with interesting views to city center and even to the open sea. The atmosphere is calm and the spaces dimly lit.

　　建筑内部空间包含了两个部分：公共桑拿和一间餐厅；但不同区域又被组织在一个整体的大空间中。桑拿和公共区域的朝着海洋方向开放，眺望着城市中心和大海，略为昏暗的空间平静安宁。

Different areas are conceived as spaces within a space. Interesting views open between closed spaces as you move from one area to the next. You enter in the restaurant that is a light and open space. From there a dimly lit sauna path leads to bathing area. Shoes are left in a wardrobe before you go to a reception desk where you get a locker key and a towel. Dressing rooms and showers are separate for men and women. A leather curtain covering the door indicates entry into the unisex area, at which point visitors need to wear a bathing suit. Traditionally men and women bath separately and naked. We wanted to develop sauna culture so that there would be a possibility bath together with your friends not depending on the gender. This makes sauna experience available also for foreign visitors that might not be used to bathing naked.

Interior室内设计

The interior architecture of the restaurant and the sauna lounge is by Joanna Laajisto Creative Studio. The objective of the design was to create an atmospheric restaurant which compliments the strong architecture of the building. The approach could be called soft minimalism. The challenge was to create intimate seating areas in the large hall like space with two walls of windows. People often feel most comfortable sitting their backs against the wall. The solution was to build a raised platform for the bar area which divides the space into two different areas. A wooden half wall anchors the long custom designed sofas which have a great view of the sea.

　　餐厅和桑拿休息室的室内设计由Joanna Laajisto Creative Studio完成。设计师致力于用柔和的极简主义的设计方法，营造一个符合整体建筑风格的有气氛的餐厅。人们往往通过靠墙而坐得获得安全感和舒适感，而本次设计最大的挑战在于在一个两面临窗的开阔大厅里创造出一片私密的就座区域。设计师在酒吧区域建立了一个将空间一分为二的抬高的平台，而定制的沙发环绕幕墙而设，眺望着不远处的宽阔海景。

The main materials used in the interiors are black concrete, light Scandinavian birch wood, blackened steel and wool. All materials are durable and long lasting. The wood used is pressed, glued and slightly heat treated birch, a new sustainable Finnish innovation made of left over materials of the plywood industry that normally is burned to produce energy. This is how waste is turned into a beautiful recycled material. It´s manufacturing process produces a beautiful cool light color tone and heavy durability.

　　室内应用的主要材料为黑色混凝土，浅色的斯堪的那维亚桦木，碳化钢和毛料。所有的材料都耐用持久。芬兰新发明的可持续方法，将胶合板工业产生的废料经过压制、胶合和轻度热处理生成了花木桦木。极富创意的制造过程将废料变成美观的回收材料，生产出的材料有着好看的浅色调和很强的持久性。

Saunas桑拿房

There are three different saunas that are all heated with wood: a continuously heated sauna, a once heated sauna (that is heated in the morning before the sauna is open and stays warm all evening) and a traditional smoke sauna – a true rarity in an urban sauna. This is how you can experience all sorts of Finnish Löyly during a single visit. Between the saunas there is spa area with cold water basin and a fire place room to relax in, between or after sauna bathing. You can swim in the sea and in the winter there is an “avanto”, the whole in the ice for winter swimming – a popular hobby in Finland and our office name as well.

　　这里三种不同的桑拿房都通过木材加热：持续加热的桑拿房，早晨在桑拿房开放前加热、并整晚保温的一次性加热桑拿，以及在城市桑拿中十分罕见的传统烟熏桑拿。客人可以一次在Löyly经历各种不同的体验。桑拿房之间有一个带冷水池的spa区域和一个带壁炉的休息室，供客人在桑拿浴中途或之后使用。客人可以在海中游泳，甚至在冬天跳进在冰上凿出的洞内游泳。

Sustainability可持续策略

The building is heated with district heating and electricity is produced with water and wind power. The building is first FSC-certified building in Finland and second in Scandinavia. Forest Stewardship Council’s certificate proves that wood material comes from responsibly managed forests. The restaurant serves organic food and sustainably caught fish.

　　建筑使用区域集中供暖和由水能和风能产生的电力，是芬兰首个，北欧第二个获得FSC认证的建筑。森林管理委员会的认证证明了木材都是来自合法管制的森林。餐厅则供应有机食物和有节制捕捉的渔业公司。
