Anaha Spa at Shreyas Retreat
July 10, 2017
The spa gives off a minimalist vibe with its clean lines, exposed finishes and the use of local materials and craftsmanship. The organic feel is accentuated by natural light illuminating the inside spaces—the exposed walls and ceilings a canvas for a play of light and shadows.
The spaces are further held together with a strong design language of brick jaali screens, Kota stone flooring, as well as doors and openings made from locally sourced solid wood. The inclusion of exposed walls, local stones and brick screens, designed parametrically but constructed using local techniques and masons, added a subtle yet distinct character to the spatial experience of the spa retreat.
