Peter Zumthor, Therme Vals

The Therme in Vals has been published so many times that we think it wouldn't get our attention anymore, but it still does! The lighting in the Therme is magical, but contemporary. It glides through linear openings, immersing you with the feeling that you are indeed inside the mountain, more so because you are also surrounded by the deep murmur of the rock. The artificial and natural light together play with your senses and create a serene place where bathing becomes a timeless experience.
