For over a century, a humble (and undeniably charming) hunting shack sat on this land. The second we laid eyes on its weathered bones, we saw pure potential—not a relic to demolish, but a hidden gem waiting for rebirth.

That little shack had no idea of its next chapter: Sentō, a private forest spa. In Japan, a sentō (銭湯) refers to a traditional public bathhouse - a shared space where people have gathered for centuries to soak, sweat, and find deep relaxation and quiet connection through the simple ritual of bathing. Here, we've reimagined that ancient tradition as something intimate and exclusive: your own secluded sentō, where the forest replaces the neighborhood and the only company is the trees, the steam, and your loved ones.

We poured a massive heated foundation, gently lifted the original structure atop it and wove in a sleek, modern addition with capacity to hold luxuries.
