Origin · Aarhus, Denmark

From the back of the workshop.

The first round vessel kept at the studio in Aarhus
The first vessel, kept for the studio.

It began in 2024, in a small workshop in Aarhus. After years of stepping out of the sauna and into the cold sea — that first sharp breath, the body waking, the mind suddenly quiet — we wanted to bring that contrast home, held inside a single, considered object. The first piece was a round vessel in stainless steel, kept beside the sauna through the winter and spoken of only among friends. It belonged more to ritual than to commerce.

Cold air. Warm timber. Steam on steel. The feeling came first; the product followed later.

That first piece set the measure: brushed metal, solid timber, quiet weight, and the patience of handwork. It was never sold — it stayed in the studio as a collection piece, and in time it evolved into the square version we build today. Every numbered vessel carries something of that beginning — made slowly, as if it were still being built for the studio alone.

The Ritual

The Nordic ritual of contrast.

Close view of ice and water inside KUBE N • 20

Heat softens. Cold awakens. Together they form one of the oldest rituals in Nordic culture — the body moved from deep warmth into cold water, and back to stillness.

The Finns call it löyly and avanto; the Danes simply call it winter bathing. For generations it has been used to ease tired muscles, sharpen the mind, support circulation and immunity, and quiet the nervous system at the end of the day.

Modern research now describes what bathers have long known: alternating heat and cold raises heart-rate variability, supports recovery and sleep, releases endorphins, and trains the body to meet stress with composure rather than tension.

KUBE N•20 was made to complete the sauna: the quiet step from heat into water. Not only recovery — rhythm. Heat, cold, breath, stillness, repeated until the day settles.

Heat. Cold. Stillness.

The Object

One vessel.
Hot and cold.

Not a plunge tub, not a hot tub — both, in one body. Integrated heating and cooling hold any temperature from 4 °C to 40 °C inside a double-wall insulated shell of AISI 316 stainless steel, with solid teak trim.

Denmark · Norway · Other destinations by enquiry

Each piece is hand-built in our Aarhus workshop from AISI 316 marine-grade stainless steel — every seam welded, ground and polished by hand until the surface holds the light like still water. We release only a few each month and review every request personally. Once we receive yours, we confirm placement, access and the next available production number; deposit details and final confirmation follow from us directly.

The engraving

Every KUBE N • 20 is engraved with its production number and the geographic coordinates of the exact place it is made for — etched into the inner rim of the stainless-steel basin, just below the waterline. Subtle by day, legible up close, and impossible to replicate.

N° 004 / 2026
56.1629° N  ·  10.2039° E

The coordinates are derived from the address you provide below. You will receive a proof of the engraving for written approval before we cut the steel.

Placement address

The full address of where the vessel will live — used for the engraving coordinates and delivery planning. Available across the EU and the United Arab Emirates.

Preferred timber

Choose the timber tone to be paired with your KUBE — Natural Teak, Warm Walnut, Deep Smoked Oak or Light Sand. Final samples are reviewed with the studio before production.
