Replace solid wood risers between bench tiers with translucent panels (frosted acrylic or thin stone) with LED behind. The bench structure itself becomes the light source, fully integrated and protected.

Approach Detail
Design bench structure with 5-10cm gap behind riser panels. Install sauna-rated LED strip on support structure, facing forward. Front panel options: heat-rated frosted acrylic, thin onyx or marble, perforated wood slat. Light glows through revealing material texture. Drivers external. Consider graduated intensity: brighter at lower levels.
Key Fixtures
Sauna-rated LED strip, translucent panel material, external drivers, custom millwork.
Designer Notes
Bench structure glows from within. Show the layered light effect through multiple bench levels. Material translucency visible - stone veining or wood grain. Sophisticated, spa-grade feeling versus standard sauna.
Best For
Design-forward saunas, custom installations, saunas with stone or onyx accents.
