HOT TOP PEAK by FIGR Architecture Studio

New Build Home SPA by O&A London

Home SPA complex in a country house by O&A London – a new project by Oleg Klodt and Anna Agapova. The owners of a country house turned to Oleg Klodt and Anna Agapova with a request to design and build a separate building on the site – a home SPA complex, where family and close people who come to visit could enjoy the silence at any time of the year and the solitude of country life surrounded by a pine forest. The building, modern in spirit, contains everything you need: a swimming pool, a sauna, a shower, a dressing room and a lounge area with access to the terrace. The customers put the comfort of their children at the forefront, so the authors built a playground for the younger generation and landscaped the surrounding area. “The SPA complex has become a comprehensive solution for this small area, as it combines a lot of useful functions,” Oleg Klodt notes, “It has become a summer dining room, a place of solitude, active and passive pastime for both adults and children.”
