ACT工作室和Borhaven Arkitekter已经完成了一个漂浮在奥斯陆港口中间的桑拿房。它面对着著名的奥斯陆歌剧院和盆地另一边的中央商务区Barcode,从沿着阿克尔舒斯堡垒的码头可以到达。它由两个桑拿房和两个带更衣室的塔楼组成,呈风车式布局,以便使桑拿房和室外区域有一个朝向城市和峡湾的理想方向。

ACT Studio & Borhaven Arkitekter have completed a floating sauna set in the middle of the Oslo harbor. It faces the famous Oslo opera house and the central business district Barcode on the other side of the basin and is reached from the quay that runs along the Akershus fortress. It consists of two saunas and two towers with changing rooms, arranged in a pinwheel layout in order to give the saunas and the outdoor areas the desired orientation towards the city and the fjord.

桑拿房 “Bademaschinen”(挪威语,意为洗澡机)的名字来源于1820年出现在奥斯陆(当时叫Kristiana)的第一个公共海澡,它是一个带有换衣和洗澡设施的木筏。这个名字表明了这个概念在当时的现代性,而且它很快就成为一种流行的服务,满足了公众的健康需求。随后,许多类似的设施蓬勃发展,一直到20世纪,奥斯陆峡湾日益严重的污染使得在海里洗澡的健康问题受到怀疑。今天,峡湾比过去150年都要干净,奥斯陆最近也出现了桑拿和海浴的高潮。

The sauna «Bademaschinen», Norwegian for the Bathing Machine, is named after the first public sea bath that appeared in Oslo (then called Kristiana) in 1820, which was a raft with facilities for changing and bathing. The name suggested the modernity of the concept in its time, and it soon became a popular service catering to the health of the public. It was followed by numerous similar establishments, that flourished well into the 20th century when the increasing pollution of the Oslo fjord made the health aspect of bathing in the sea dubious. Today the fjord is cleaner than it has been in the last 150 years, and Oslo has lately experienced a surge of saunas and sea baths.

桑拿房从多种历史资料中汲取灵感,最值得一提的是19世纪的海澡堂,这些海澡堂往往具有那个时期流行的富有想象力和历史感的建筑。城堡式的布局和红黄相间的配色方案是对靠近阿克尔舒斯堡垒的点头,而其他元素则是向后现代主义建筑的典范致敬。

The sauna draws inspiration from multiple historical sources, most notably the sea baths of the 19th century which often had the imaginative and historicizing architecture that was popular in that period. The castle-like layout and the color scheme of red and yellow is a nod to the proximity to the Akershus fortress, whereas other elements pay homage to the canon of postmodernist architecture.

然而,主要的设计驱动因素是重新利用奥斯陆郊外的一个1960年代的疗养院的柚木窗框,该疗养院正在进行全面的修复和改建为住房。可用窗户的尺寸决定了设计的其余部分,事实上,它只是由设置窗户的结构框架组成。因此,建筑构件是事先选择和采购的,设计遵循的是联想过程。桑拿房部分由志愿者建造,从构思到完成的过程只有八个月。

The primary design driving factor was however the reuse of teak window frames from a 1960s nursing home outside of Oslo, that was undergoing full rehabilitation and conversion into housing. The measurements of the available windows then dictated the rest of the design, which in fact consists of little more than the structural frame in which the windows are set. As such the architectural components were chosen and procured beforehand, and the design followed an associative process. The sauna was built partially by volunteers, and the process from ideation to completion was only eight months.
