John Harris Schillerplatz 1010, Spa
Complete refurbishment of the spa area in the John Harris headquarters at Schillerplatz in Vienna. The more than ten-year-old spa in the basement of the building was completely renovated and a relaxation room was added. By removing earth material from the basement and moving the ventilation ducts, it was possible to increase the room height considerably. The pool, sauna and rest areas now have a completely new look in calming shades of copper with anthracite-coloured floor tiles and hexagonal mosaic tiles. Rounded corners and backlit skirting boards visually lift the room and create a floating impression. The abstract shadows cast by Megumi Ito’s elegant ornamental lamps reinforce this transcendent appearance.

Sparkling and glittering…
…is the new spa with pool on the ground floor of the John Harris fitness studio at Schillerplatz! After more than ten years the old wellness area, also by BWM Architekten, has been newly designed and considerably extended to an area of 270 m2. The new dark and mysterious look with abstract ornamental light effects reminds of Oriental Hammam atmospheres. To the project.
