Therme Erding
Biophilic design in the spa area at Therme Erding thermal baths
What were the challenges, and how did we come up with a solution?
The renovation of a section of the Therme Erding thermal baths was based on the principle of biophilic design – an approach that consciously incorporates elements from nature into the space and creates a calm, relaxing atmosphere. Architecture, materials and greenery come together here to form a coherent spatial concept
The challenge was to design functional elements such as planters, columns and wash stations in such a way that they blend in with the organic design while also meeting the requirements of a popular spa facility. By using solid surface material, we were able to create precisely formed, seamless surfaces that would also be durable enough to withstand constant use.

What steps had to be taken to achieve this?
Rosskopf + Partner made bespoke planters and column cladding along with counters and wash station units out of solid surface material. The components were engineered and machined, custom-made and prepared for assembly. Their organic design style blends in with the overall architectural concept and enhances the tranquil, nature-inspired atmosphere of the wellness space.
