London as a
Batheable City.
Positioning sauna bathhouses as vital social infrastructure. We bridge the gap between urban policy, preventative care, and world-class thermal architecture.
Project 01
Canal-side thermal hubs
Mapped sauna sites across London — from floating river baths to estate rooftops — forming a grassroots network of community heat.
Bridging the gap between the sweat and the system.
Site Feasibility
Mapping urban typologies from underused car parks to rooftop infills for thermal potential.
Policy & Planning
Aligning health outcomes with planning requirements and local council wellbeing targets.
Design & Build
Expert advice on high-traffic sauna technical specs, from drainage to timber seasoning.
Operator Pairing
Connecting visionary landowners with world-class community sauna operators.
Infrastructure as
Preventative Care
Saunas are not a luxury. They are tools for longevity, cardiovascular health, and civic cohesion. We turn dead space into vital community assets.
Urban Acupuncture
Using neglected alleys and mews to insert micro-bathhouses that revitalize the local high street economy.
Rooftop Resilience
Repurposing housing estate roofs for community-led wellness centers, improving mental health accessibility.
Floating Public Realm
Mobile, barge-based saunas that navigate London's waterways, reconnecting citizens with the Thames.
