Sauna 3 by 4: internal layout
The interior layout of a 3 by 4 bath can be comfortable and convenient for one person, or for two or even three people. This is not exactly a tiny bathhouse, but it is not at all a luxurious sauna. However, if you apply your imagination, then you can equip everything with maximum comfort and place everything you need on these few square meters.
Features and Benefits
Many owners of private houses prefer to equip just such small baths on their territory.
The fact is that they have a lot of their own advantages:
- Profitability... First of all, it is worth noting that it is very profitable to build such a bath. The construction of a 3x4 building will take very little materials. If you build a room from a bar, then only one beam, sawn into two parts, will go to the construction of a bath. There will be no waste here.
And if you build the premises yourself, you will also be able to save on work. In addition, it will take very little time to build a bathhouse - as a rule, following all the tips, you can build a bathhouse in just a few weeks.
- Thoughtful layout... Since the 3x4 bath is small in size, each free meter has to be used to the maximum. However, such a rational distribution of space is very beneficial.
As a rule, such a room is divided into two main parts. The main part is a steam room. The second is reserved for the dressing room.
In this part of the bath, you can equip a place for relaxation. But here only a few people can comfortably accommodate, for a large company there will not be enough space.
- Durability... With the right choice of materials, baths can be very durable. Since the size of the room is small, you can spend money on good wood with high-quality impregnation. This is much more profitable and better than rebuilding a huge sauna, which will soon lose its attractiveness.
Separately, it is worth noting the fact that it is much easier to register such a small bathhouse. And then it will be much more convenient to sell it.
Space layout
Each free meter of a 4x3 bath should be used rationally. In addition to the steam room and the dressing room, there may also be a place for a shower. The main thing is to draw a plan in advance and make sure that all rooms will really be comfortable and functional.
Each of the compartments has its own layout features:
Steam room
The main part of any bath is, of course, a steam room. You don't have to allocate too much space for it. If you want the bath to be more functional, and there is a place for something other than a steam room, then you can limit yourself to a space of one and a half by two meters... In such a tiny room, there is enough room for one person to sit on the shelf. There will also be enough free meters for a small stove or boiler to heat the room.
Restroom
Another important part of the room is the recreation room. It is very beneficial to divide the room into several such zones. All this is done so that in the second room you can calmly rest without suffering from the heat.
The steam room tends to overheat, so it should be slightly cooler in other rooms.This room should have access to both the steam room and the dressing room for general convenience. In some cases, it is equipped in the attic.
Dressing room
This room is intended for several purposes at once. Firewood or solid fuel is stored here. This room also serves as the entrance to the bathhouse. It can also become a dressing room and a place where all things will be stored while the hosts and guests are in the steam room.
It is advisable to insulate the door to the dressing room a little. This is done so that there is no too sharp contrast between hot air in the sauna and ice outside.
Washroom
A shower room or a washroom is also a very important room. It should also be separate from the rest. In a washing room, as a rule, the temperature is several times lower than in a steam room. It is also important to keep it as private as possible. After all, taking a shower is a secretive process, during which you do not want to catch the glances of others.
Since the sink is heated separately, it should not be made large... And for other rooms, you also need to save space. It is enough for one person to take a shower comfortably without bumping into walls and without discomfort. In some cases, a half square meter room is enough.
But if the room is not made for gatherings with friends, but for a full-fledged family vacation, then it is worth expanding it a little. In this case, the washing room can be combined with the washing area. In this case, the place for the sink may be even larger than the steam room.
It is worth considering everything as carefully as possible. Natural ventilation and good heating are very important... In the case of such a layout, the recreation room can be taken out either to the attic or to the house. This removal of the premises can solve the problem of lack of space.
Pool
Since a small-sized bathhouse is not at all the room where there is enough space for both a comfortable steam room and a huge pool, the latter has to be located not inside, but outside.
Wherein you can always make the pool protected from bad weather by purchasing an ordinary canopy... It is also worth noting that nowadays cascade pools are especially popular. This is an interesting structure in which several parts of the pool are located one above the other.
Because of this, the water in them can be of different temperatures. For example, in one part of the pool it is hot, and in the opposite end it is almost icy. Such a design was invented not for swimming, but for an interesting rest and for hardening your body.
Internal arrangement
The most important functional part of the room is the steam room. When arranging this room, there are many nuances to consider. First of all, the very location of this part of the bath is important. Professionals advise to place it away from the front doors.to keep cold air out.
There is only one door to the steam room itself. This is also done in order to keep as much warm air as possible inside the room.
It is also worth planning the size of the room very carefully. The width, length and height of the room are calculated depending on many parameters. It is worth taking into account the cost of materials, taking into account your budget, purchasing everything you need for construction.
It is very important to consider how many people will rest in the steam room. The more people the bathhouse is designed for, the more space you need to free up for this room.
The room must certainly be warm and comfortable. In addition to closed and insulated doors, you also need to think about arranging a good stove or heater. It must be powerful and have good heat dissipation. At the same time, one should never forget about fire safety rules.
Bath decoration
When the bath has already been rebuilt, you can move on to its decor.It is impossible to place luxurious fountains and fresh flowers in flowerpots on the territory of a small room, but there are many other ideas for decor that you can really do with your own hands.
Wall and ceiling decor
First of all, designers propose to do the decoration of the ceiling and walls. To make the base more beautiful, you can trim it with wood or pebbles. There are no problems with pebbles, but wood for use in the bath must be protected with special wood stains and other meansextending the life of this material.
Baths in the so-called eco-style are now at their peak of popularity. To create such a room it is enough to decorate the walls with wooden panels, put up benches made of natural wood and add a firebox in the dressing room with firewood neatly laid in it.
Artificial reservoirs
A waterfall can be installed in the washing room, which is not even large in size. It doesn't have to be large and luxurious - a small decorative element will be enough to replace the traditional mixer, not the wall.
To create it, you can use the most ordinary garden watering can, or a shell brought from the sea, or a small barrel.
You can also arrange a place where you can cool off after a stuffy steam room. To do this, just put a massive wooden barrel with cold water. The same barrel can be used instead of the washstand.
Decor items
Both furniture and decor items can be made to match the wall decoration. In a beautiful wooden bath you can use wicker furniture, simple benches made of rough planks, or even armchairs made from barrels... They certainly need to be covered with protective mixtures so that they do not deteriorate from high humidity and sudden temperature changes.
All sorts of little things that liven up the interior so well are also suitable. These are various figurines of animals or brownies, and plants in small clay pots.
A 3x4 bath is a room that can be both beautiful and comfortable if you approach the layout and arrangement wisely.
