Custom saunas — Los Angeles
A sauna built into the house, not bolted on.
Cedar, hemlock, and wood-fired saunas, designed and built into the home and engineered like the rest of it — by a licensed Los Angeles general contractor.
What we build
Cedar, hemlock, wood-fired.
Heat-rated assemblies, hidden ventilation, controls that disappear. Cedar and hemlock benches, or a wood-fired stove where the room calls for it. Built into the home and engineered like the rest of it — not a kit dropped into a closet.

Part of a wellness wing.
A sauna is the heat in a larger ritual — heat, steam, cold, rest. Pair it with a steam room and a cold plunge and we sequence all three in one engineered wing of the home.
