AUKI SAUNA
AUKI SAUNA
Designed by Giovanna Talocci
Built entirely from highly- prized Swedish pine or knot-free Canadian hemlock, Auki is the perfect blend of the ancient Scandinavian sauna tradition and up-to- the-minute design.
The sauna is made of superior wood and 8 mm low-emission toughened glass panels.
The interiors are particularly welcoming with their different sized wooden slats. Auki can easily be adapted to fit the available space and is suitable for custom solutions.
All Auki saunas have a stylish edge-mounted door handle that does not interrupt the glass panels, preserving the clean lines.
