World-class architecture by Lake Saimaa
Nestled in a rocky cove surrounded by trees, the resort comprises two square buildings that house a restaurant and saunas. The tranquil cove location invites the quests for a relaxed time at the restaurant, saunas and their lake-view terraces. The openings on both of the roofs work as a shared cohesive element between the buildings. The sauna building's opening is a closed atrium, while the restaurant building's roof opens up to the lake, providing a cosy atmosphere for fun gatherings and peaceful evenings alike.
The restaurant and the saunas are designed by Studio Puisto Architects and constructed by Saimaan Seudun Erikoisrakentajat Oy.
The restaurant opened in June 2022 and has already been featured in several international architecture and design magazines throughout Europe.
