Backlit salt wall

A wall of salt bricks with lighting behind serves as both wellness feature and ambient illumination. The salt glows warmly regardless of steam density. Light doesn't try to penetrate fog; it's part of the surface.

Complex Premium
Approach Detail

Construct salt brick wall panel with 10cm air gap behind for lighting and ventilation. Install IP65 LED strip on back surface, facing wall. 1800-2200K for warmest amber. Salt bricks are semi-translucent; light glows through crystal structure. Absolutely no electrical inside steam room proper.

Key Fixtures

Himalayan salt bricks, LED strip (IP65 behind wall), sealed wall construction, ventilated cavity.

Designer Notes

Salt wall should glow like amber sunset. Steam softens edges. Capture the mineral, ancient quality of salt. Guests as silhouettes against warm wall. This is about color and texture, not illumination.
