Alpha Wellness Sensations is a brand dedicated to the manufacturing and installing of wellness furniture and equipment, as well as the design of custom wellness areas, such as the Finnish sauna, the steam room, and the cold room supplied for the Amaré Wellness private sauna in Beervelde, Belgium.
The Amaré is a compact wellness center on the outskirts of Beervelde. Nested in a residential area; surrounded by vast agricultural fields, it occupies a former private residence that has since been redeveloped into a spa with overnight amenities. The building preserves its original structure, with a wooden, thatched frame on top of the brick walls, now covered in plaster. The roof preserves its roof tile finish with black tiles that contrast with the deep white of the walls. A neon pink sign on the front facade presents the spa to visitors and passersby.
The wellness facilities sit at the back of the plot, behind the original house. With the same white plaster and dark accents for the roof and outstanding elements of the walls, it also welcomes guests to the spa with another pink neon sign by its doors, framed in black. The spa is accessed through a small lobby that directs guests to its relaxation room, from where the rest of the wellness facilities can be accessed.
The spa has the following amenities:
The back walls of the property are completely closed off to the neighboring homes with white stone gabions. Its heated pool, outdoors, is usable all year round, covered in winter with a sliding canopy. It connects to the spa through the open terrace, for guests.
A layer of black gravel surrounds the buildings within the property, bridged between the buildings with sparse walking paths.
Alpha Wellness Sensations provided three custom versions of the standard products the company offers.
The Finnish sauna is a custom version of the Chaleur sauna model, with its 3D back wall and an 11 kW oven. Its walls and furniture are covered in light ayous wood, illuminated indirectly by LED strips behind the furnishings, and a starry night effect in the ceiling. The room has an Alpha aroma dosing system and a front-tempered safety glass wall.
The steam room, designed after the standard Chaleur Pro model by Alpha Wellness Sensations in light colors and pale Ezarri Carrara mosaics, integrates with the visual style of other wet rooms such as the Experience shower. It has a steam outlet and a 6KW steam generator with an aromatherapy pump. The space is illuminated by LED spotlights in the ceiling and behind the benches, all the way to the shower, right outside the room.
The cold room, designed to emulate a cave environment with cement stone, is a compact room of 200 by 200 centimeters, with illumination distributed among sparse locations. The walls have an air cooling system of 4.5 kW and its ice machine produces up to 3 kilos per hour.
