Biophilic concept for a wellness space focused into the idea of cold therapy journeys that incorporate TechnoAlpinIndoor snow solutions. Biophilic design brings biophilic principles indoors and prove it is possible to create science-based spaces that hold the power of inducing measurable well-being as well as embracing the benefits of the longevity of its occupants.
The design includes a path that guides visitors through warm and cold elements, various forms of water, and finally, snow. This concept of “cold with joy” reinvents contrast therapy, making the cold experience accessible and enjoyable for everyone, without shock.
Giuliana Salmaso: “I wanted to capture that feeling of well-being, intimacy, happiness, and purity that one experiences when watching snowfall from indoors. The different areas of the spa are like refuges immersed in the calm and silent atmosphere of a snowfall.”
