The rest room in the bath has become as important a part as the steam room. During bath procedures, the effect alternates high temperatures saunas with intervals to restore the body between visits to the steam room. The relaxation room is designed to make these breaks comfortable. When planning to build a bath, you should definitely allocate a room for restoration.

The advice of professionals will tell you how to correctly choose the right project.

Peculiarities

Bath projects with a rest room can be divided into three groups. The first group is traditional one-story baths. They are built from capital building materials with low thermal conductivity, have a standard set of premises: there is a steam room, a shower room, a relaxation room, a dressing room, and sometimes a terrace.

The recreation room is located on the ground floor next to the steam room and washing room and combines the functions of a dressing room. This is the most convenient option, which allows you to maintain the optimum temperature in all rooms, as the stove evenly heats all adjacent rooms with steam supply to the sauna section.

This layout allows you to place the furnace in the steam room, which is not always convenient, and in the rest room.

The stoker is at a comfortable temperature, and it is also easier to remove debris after kindling. Modern technological ovens long burning can have a glass screen, which allows you to admire the play of flames while relaxing, creating a pleasant fireplace atmosphere and giving living warmth to the inhabitants of the room. A simple layout, however, includes everything you need for bath procedures, has great variability in area.

The minimum building area is from 16 sq. meters, which is convenient for small areas, the maximum - at the request of the owner. This option does not require large investments due to the energy consumption of heating.

The second group - projects with a rest room located in the attic or on the second floor. It will require the construction of a second floor or roof insulation, which will entail additional consumption of materials, the foundation will need to be strengthened to increase the bearing load. This option is convenient for a small area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe building.

On the ground floor there is a dressing room, a dressing room, a steam room, a washing room. On the second - a rest room with or without a balcony. You will need to allocate space for the flight of stairs. Beautiful spiral staircase can decorate the interior of the bath.

The third group of projects - with the removal of the rest room on the terrace. This layout is convenient for summer use. In the cold season, the terrace will need to be glazed and a heating system should be considered. However, this arrangement of the rest room gives great scope for the implementation of design solutions.

A panoramic view of the landscape adds aesthetic pleasure to the minutes of relaxation.

The choice of layout depends on the seasonality of the use of the bath. For year-round use, the first and second group of projects are suitable. In summer, it is enough to have a rest room under a canopy with flexible glazing made of film or polycarbonate for a budget option.

Of great importance is the availability of free space on the site, and if it is not enough, then raising a rest room to the attic will be a good way out. Heating the second floor in the cold season needs an air or water circuit. Installing a long-burning stove with a convector on the ground floor can solve this problem.

The placement of the bath on the site must meet the standards fire safety and ease of use. It is advisable to orient the windows of the rest room to an attractive view. Glad to see beautiful landscapes in front of my eyes, not a fence or a neighbor's barn.

It is advisable to choose an elevated area for good ventilation and water drainage.. A spectacular addition can be the proximity of an artificial or natural reservoir.

Particular attention is paid to materials for the construction of the bath. Traditionally, preference is given to natural wood in the form of timber or round logs of linden, aspen, cedar.

Pine is more affordable, has a beautiful pattern of knotted wood fibers and is a popular material for a bath in the country. Its disadvantage is the porous structure of the wood, which greatly changes the performance from heat and high humidity, so in the steam room and shower, the pine must be sheathed with a hardwood lath, and for the rest room pine with its pleasant smell and aesthetic appearance would be the best solution.

Brick is a more expensive material, but it has the best indicators of durability and resistance to temperature changes.

A budget building can also be built from foam blocks. The construction of a bath from blocks can be done with your own hands, even without special knowledge.

Interior spaces sheathed with a block house, finished with tiles or natural stone.

The design of the rest room involves following a certain style, depending on the design, finishing materials are selected.

Design subtleties

Designing a bath yourself is an exciting experience. To do this, stock up on paper, a pencil and a ruler.

For a family of 4-5 people and several guests optimal size a bath 6x6 meters with an attic is considered. On the ground floor there is an entrance hall, a steam room, a shower room with a toilet, a relaxation room or a living room. The rest room can be supplemented with a kitchen, and the second floor is reserved for leisure and additional places to accommodate guests or family members. The entrance area of ​​the second floor with an area of ​​18 meters can be occupied by a studio or a billiard room. Behind it are two symmetrical bedrooms or rooms for children of 9 square meters. meters.

The functionality of the bath is expanding significantly, and for this it is not necessary to build big house. Compact layout with a bathroom satisfies the needs of an average family in a country holiday.

with terrace

Bath with a terrace - great option for summer meals in the fresh air after bath procedures. A barbecue grill can be placed on the site in front of the bath or you can enter the grill area into the veranda space. To do this, the size of the terrace should be increased so as to provide free access to the brazier and avoid smoke from the dining table and windows.

The minimum distance between the stove and the table must be at least 2 meters. They put a ready-made metal brazier or build a stone brazier made of bricks with a chimney. For such a brazier, a separate foundation is erected, which is taken into account at the design stage.

The floor of the terrace is best made of paving slabs or sandstone if the terrace is open. A wooden floor is also used for a glazed terrace.. Glazing is made of sliding aluminum or plastic frames. Plastic frames are used for warm glazing. Lightweight aluminum structures protect against the weather, but the temperature inside closed space will only be a couple of degrees higher than outside.

A bathhouse with a barbecue and panoramic glazing on the veranda will become a place of attraction for households after a working week.

With swimming pool

The benefits of bathing procedures will increase many times when arranging a pool or a font in a relaxation room. The pool is located near the shower.

The pool bowl is made of concrete and finished with tiles.

The tile is selected to match the overall decoration of the rest room. Oriental flavor will give a floral ornament and mosaic. Stone, brick and wooden sides are suitable for a Russian-style bath.

In one-story baths, a complex is often designed from a terrace with a font under a canopy. The font is made of wood and placed on a wooden platform in the fresh air..

In the Japanese version, the heating of the font is equipped with electric heating elements that are built into the body. Combining a recreation area with a bathhouse, for summer swimming, a ready-made frame pool is installed or a stationary pool is erected, sun loungers or beach chairs are located nearby.

The reservoir can have strict geometric outlines or be close to the natural form. In this case, the coast is decorated with pebbles and plants: hosta, astilba, cereals. The bathhouse with a pool on the terrace is closed from prying eyes hedge from flowering shrubs or vines on supports.

The complex recreation area requires good lighting, as it is used in the evening.

Lighting the territory with electricity is done in the presence of communications, a more economical option is lighting with LEDs or solar-powered lanterns.

small room

Small baths cannot boast of a large set of rooms, so often a shower is located in the relaxation room. In the decoration of premises with such a planning solution, it is necessary to take into account the increased humidity and select the appropriate materials: tile, plastic panels, natural or artificial stone.

The shower must be fenced off from the recreation area with a partition made of glass or plastic so that splashes do not interfere with vacationers.

Furniture is preferably purchased from moisture resistant materials. Correct selection finishes will make the use of the shower convenient, and being in the rest room will be comfortable.

Design

The design of the rest room is determined by the chosen style of decoration. To finish the bath, it is better to select natural materials that are resistant to moisture. It is convenient to keep all rooms clean if the space is not cluttered with unnecessary items, and the surfaces are easy to clean. The design of the rest room is determined by the chosen style of decoration.

Rural or Russian style

Direction implies application natural wood for wall and floor cladding. Wood is being processed special formulations against fungus and coated with oil or wax. The natural color of the wood gives the interior a light tone, which visually enlarges the space.

It looks interesting to use unedged boards in wall cladding, which are cleaned of bark and polished. The room takes on brutal features.

This inexpensive finish serves as thermal insulation and aesthetic accent.

The walls can be sheathed with coniferous clapboard, decorated with carvings.

Furniture in such a rest room is made with their own hands from solid pine or purchased ready-made and complemented with decor from relief images on a tree with a bath theme. Log walls look beautiful as a symbol of traditional Russian culture. For budget options use a plastic block house imitating various types of wood.

Scandinavian style

The perfect combination of functionality and simplicity. The decoration is dominated White color with brown or black design elements.

The main material is wood and glass. The whole color scheme is calm, a geometric theme can be traced everywhere. Here it is appropriate to use natural or artificial stone, the panel from the saw cuts of the tree looks original. The whole environment is practical and durable.

Baths in Rus' have existed since ancient times. And if in the old days the main task of the bath was hygiene procedures and maintaining cleanliness, then in the modern world it is rather a place for a comfortable stay with family and friends, as well as an opportunity to demonstrate their financial viability, because not every Russian can afford his own bath.

Nowadays, baths are built from materials of exceptionally high quality, so that they are comfortable, practical and serve faithfully for many years.

A modern bath is not just a steam room. This is a whole multifunctional complex, which includes everything that can be located in a comfortable house: a steam room itself, a recreation room, a gym or a billiard room, a small pool and an open veranda.

Peculiarities

A spacious terrace is perhaps the biggest dream of any resident of the metropolis who appreciates outdoor recreation in the company of close friends. However, if your cottage is not equipped with a veranda, as is often the case in old private houses and modern standard cottages, then you can compensate for this shortcoming and build a bathhouse in the yard, equipping it with a functional recreation area.

Thanks to this, several tasks can be solved at once:

  • the presence of a bath "without leaving home";
  • the presence of a terrace that can be used as the most common gazebo where you can arrange spiritual gatherings in pleasant company;
  • a practical solution to the problem of organizing friendly or family leisure;
  • if necessary, the solution of the ill-fated "housing problem".

Terraces can be equipped with barbecues, grills and barbecues, without which no picnic can do. There are other nice bonuses of such structures - right on the veranda you can fry kebabs and cook other snacks.

In addition, the joint construction of a bathhouse and a terrace allows you to maintain a single architectural style and comply with the concept of landscape design throughout the site. There is no need to connect separate objects with paths, and this greatly increases the total usable area of ​​the land, which can be used as a flower bed, rockery or lawn.

And, of course, combining a bath with a place of rest allows you to save on construction work, since at the same time the wall of the bath simultaneously acts as a wall of the veranda, and this significantly reduces the consumption of necessary materials.

It should be separately focused on the fact that joining a terrace with a bath is much more difficult than building them at the same time.

If the common foundation was not laid even at the stage of foundation construction, then it is better to refuse the idea of ​​\u200b\u200ba bath + terrace "2 in 1", especially if the soil is heaving. In this case, both parts will shrink differently, which leads to cracking of the walls.

If you are determined to combine two functional buildings, then it is worth considering the basic aspects of this technological process.

It is optimal to build a veranda only after the shrinkage of the building, after that they equip a columnar foundation and erect a building perimeter on it.

To reduce the likelihood of distortions, the terrace can simply not be connected to the main wall bath complex, and mask all the gaps that have appeared with the help of polyurethane foam or using sliding fasteners.

It is better to equip the roof separately for both structural elements, and so that water is not poured between the roof of the bath and the covering of the veranda, an L-shaped ebb is equipped. It is placed 2-3 cm above the terrace and mounted to the log log.

Material selection

Most builders claim that the bath should be wooden, and the most best material is coniferous wood. This is a very common misconception. The fact is that coniferous trees are characterized by increased resinousness, and this resin begins to emit a pungent odor at elevated temperatures. That is why it is recommended to take coniferous varieties only for the construction of frame boxes, but for the finish interior decoration it is worth giving preference to linden, alder or oak wood.

Keep in mind that pairs of pine, juniper and cedar have a beneficial effect on the body only in small quantities. Inhalation of large doses can cause significant harm respiratory tract– their passages become clogged, and inhalation/exhalation becomes difficult.

It is equally important to determine the typical form of wood material. Many people use a log in the construction of baths, since such buildings can work effectively in any season in a variety of natural and climatic conditions. Other consumers prefer timber. Such material is more expensive than logs. However, its operational parameters are also higher: the beam is laid faster, but it cracks much less often.

In any case, both types of wood blanks are suitable for building a bath with a terrace, and the final choice is only a matter of personal preferences of the owner of the site.

Good for building bathhouses gas silicate blocks and foam concrete. It's relative inexpensive materials, which effectively solve all the problems associated with the thermal insulation of the room.

The only thing you need to pay special attention to is the equipment for highly effective waterproofing of the walls and their high-quality putty. The air in the steam room is humid, so walls must be reliably protected from the adverse effects of moisture. Nowadays brick baths they practically do not build, although this material is considered the most optimal for finishing the facade of a country house, they also look very stylish decorative fences brick verandas.

For those who are looking original solutions for your site, you can recommend a round bath with a terrace, built using the environmentally friendly "clay pot" technology. All that is required is a couple of dump trucks of firewood, a load of hay and big car clay.

Design and layout

At its core, the creation of a bath project with a terrace - in general, simple task, however, in practice, it requires compliance with and application of a large number of the most different rules and principles.

The area of ​​the steam room must be at least 10 square meters. m, and the ceiling height is not less than 2 m- with this arrangement of the bath, three people can be in the room at the same time without loss of comfort.

For any bath, it is important to have the possibility of natural water runoff, so the subfloor, as a rule, is performed at a certain angle.

When installing a bath complex, it is forbidden to mount cables, lamps and shades; in contact with steam, they can cause an accident. When building such premises, preference should be given to specialized materials. although they are by no means cheap.

Depending on the location of the baths and terraces, there are several types of layouts: open, closed and corner.

open

A mansion with a large open veranda and equipped steam rooms is not only stylish, but also quite comfortable. On the veranda at any time, you can equip a small functional gazebo, put a grill or barbecue grill and cook other dishes for which air access is important.

The terrace often acts as a playground for small children, a place for meeting guests and dancing. It is on the veranda that it is so cozy to read, draw or just relax even in the most inclement weather, since, as a rule, it is reliably protected from wind and sun.

For greater comfort, you can hang curtains, they will protect from the piercing wind and annoying mosquitoes and other stinging insects.

Closed

Today, more and more owners of private houses and cottages prefer the most efficient use of their land plots. The lands, especially those located within the city, in the vast majority of cases are small in size, and the owners at the same time want to build in their yard a bathhouse with a gazebo, and other recreational facilities. This is especially important during the landscape planning stage.

If there is no house on the new site, but its construction is planned for several years, then for a start it is worth building a bathhouse. At first, it can be used not only for its intended purpose, but also play a role summer kitchen, warehouse and storage space for garden tools. Subsequently, above the bath and on the sides of it, you can arrange a garage, as well as build living rooms and equip a connected veranda. This type of structure is called closed.

This also includes projects of free-standing bath structures, to which a covered veranda is attached.

It increases the total area of ​​space for recreation and solves a number of problems:

  • allows you to use the useful space as an additional place for gatherings with family and friends;
  • use of the terrace for comfortable rest outside the bath complex;
  • arrangement of a winter garden on the terrace;
  • use for the purpose of an additional zone of the hozblok for storing household equipment.

As a rule, panoramic glazing is used in closed terraces, and the glass is made transparent or mosaic.

corner

Corner types of baths with a terrace are quite popular and common. This arrangement is considered modern trend in garden building. The design has a unique configuration, takes up little space on the site, harmoniously fits into any landscape design and is combined with other buildings in the yard. Well, besides, such a bath with a veranda is quite spacious inside due to its shape.

Corner modifications are preferred in situations where it is necessary that the bathhouse be as close as possible to the cottage, almost very close - this may be due to the characteristics of the site or the personal wishes of the owner of the house. At the same time, the terrace, which is adjacent to the main building, can have any shape - square or rectangular.

The corner bath is ergonomic. The use of this type of layout creates the conditions for a more logical and beautiful use of the area of ​​​​the site, and also allows you to put in order the areas adjacent to the house.

A distinctive feature of the corner structures is their peculiar shape. IN traditional version the basic functional zone of the room (directly the steam room and shower room) are located perpendicular to the leisure zone.

In corner-type buildings, the stove is located in the middle between the steam room and the rest room., thanks to this, the entire space is heated, which is extremely important in a cold winter time of the year.

Corner designs are optimal for small areas. They are located on one of the corners. adjoining territory, take up little space and fit into any landscape composition.

Buildings in the shape of a triangle always look quite stylish and attract attention with their architectural design. It is the corner baths with verandas that are considered the most acceptable in terms of ergonomics, practicality and functionality.

Examples of finished buildings

The choice of a specific project for the construction of a bath with a terrace most often depends on the parameters of the local area.

  • Eg, classic version - a project of a typical bath with a size of 6x9 m Ideal for homes with fairly large yards. In such a guest recreation area, not only a family, but also a large group of friends can comfortably fit. In this case, it is planned to build a joint foundation for both zones. Do not stop at one-story buildings. Often, structures are made two-story and a steam room with a veranda is located on the lower one, and a room or a billiard room and a toilet are equipped on the second.
  • If the bath is attached close to a residential building, then in this situation it will be harmoniously look project with parameters 5x6 or 6x6 m. The proportions will allow it to fit into the design concept of any type of site. At the same time, the owners not only significantly expand the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe house, but also get a cozy place where they can meet friends and relatives in any weather. By the way, this will create additional heating of the walls of the main building, and this is also of no small importance.

  • Sauna 4 x 4.5 m with a terrace- one of the typical projects offered by construction companies. A bath of this layout contains three functional rooms: a relaxation area, a steam room with a font. An open veranda is attached to the bathhouse on a separate foundation. Such a project assumes that the entrance to the place of rest is made from the street, and this can be extremely uncomfortable, especially in autumn and winter. To eliminate such a defect, you can make the veranda covered or block off part of the room and convert it into a vestibule.
  • Bath project 6x4 with a terrace involves the arrangement of a small vestibule, since such a bath without any alterations can be operated in the cold season. The steam room and the shower room are not combined, but their dimensions are almost identical. This is not always justified in terms of ergonomics. In the shower, as a rule, they wash one at a time. Therefore, it would be more correct to make it a little more compact, but for the steam room it is worth taking more space, since 2-3 people are steamed there for the most part.

  • Bath drawing 6 x 5 (with a protruding terrace)- another typical version of the bath with a fenced vestibule. With this layout option, it occupies a small part of the veranda, therefore, in order not to hide its functional area, part of the veranda is simply designed as an extension, that is, it is “pushed out” beyond the existing building foundation. Sometimes it is increased even more, making out in the form of the letter "G". This allows you to form and equip a spacious area for a good rest for a large or small company at any time of the year. At the same time, a small area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe gazebo can be fearlessly taken under the grill, barbecue or barbecue installation.

In the understanding of any Russian bath - something more than a place where you can wash. This is relaxation, communication in a warm family and friendly company. It is no coincidence that it is about the construction of such an object that they think first of all when developing suburban area earth.

Often a bath turns out to be a complex complex, which can include a relaxation room, a place for cooking, and a terrace where people gather after washing.

Peculiarities

modern baths can be timber, brick, frame prefabricated buildings. There are other options for choosing materials and construction methods.

A bath is often built with a veranda or terrace. A barbecue oven can be equipped on the terrace. But even in the simplest version, such an extension will add comfort when spending a vacation outside the city.

Best Options the planning of a suburban land plot is exactly what is obtained when creating such complexes. Together with the bath, a platform appears on the site, closed from the sun and rain by a roof.

The terrace can be surrounded by glass walls. This will allow you not to literally fence yourself off from nature, not to experience the effects of adverse weather conditions such as wind and slanting rain.

Combining a bath with a terrace will also greatly simplify the issue of construction. After all, a separate bathhouse and a gazebo not only take up more space on the territory, but also require a much more significant investment of money, effort and time during the construction of each independent object.

Building location

For the location of the bath, you need to choose the right place, taking into account a number of factors:

  • It is more correct that, with an eye to the prevailing wind direction, the bathhouse should be the last in the line of buildings. If it suddenly catches fire, in this case there will be a high probability that the fire will not spread to other buildings.
  • If the bathhouse and the residential building are built as separate objects, the distance between them must be at least eight meters. The reasons are the same as in the previous case.
  • The bath should preferably be located away from the road. Even according to the requirements of the Land Code, this distance should not be less than five meters.

The terrace in its design is an extension to the main building. In addition to the roof combined with the bath, it can be protected from the wind to a certain extent, as it has one common wall with the main building and conditional partitions around the perimeter.

At the summer terrace arrange a capital floor. It can be made of wood, sometimes it is laid out with tiles or some other finishing materials. From the furniture on this site there are benches, chairs, rocking chairs, a dining table.

The terrace can be large or small. With a reasonable approach, it can always be made as convenient and functional as possible.

The choice of materials for construction

Wood is a material traditionally used for the construction of baths. It is usually used to build a frame from a bar. The tree has many advantages:

  • it retains heat well - no need to think about additional measures for insulation;
  • in a wooden structure there is a special smell and atmosphere that are characteristic of a traditional Russian bath;
  • since the tree breathes, the humidity inside the bath room is adjusted;
  • from this material, you can create buildings of various shapes, embodying original architectural solutions;
  • there is no doubt about the environmental friendliness, since wood is safe for humans, and in the conditions of a bath it creates an additional healing effect.

disadvantage wooden bath it may be that the susceptibility of this material to mold, rotting, as well as a significant likelihood of fire in the event of careless handling of fire. In a brick bath fire hazard much less. But the room itself warms up longer, which means that you will have to spend more firewood in order to wash and take a steam bath.

Brick buildings for this purpose should have excellent ventilation., since the condensate that appears during operation becomes the cause of the appearance and spread of the fungus.

At the same time, one cannot fail to note the environmental friendliness of bricks and the fact that a building of any configuration can be built from it. The long service life of such baths is also not the last argument in favor of choosing a brick building. Its construction can be cheaper than wooden. In addition, there is no need for special finishing. Brick looks good on its own.

Sometimes it makes sense not to focus on traditional materials, but to choose something more modern for the bath complex. For example, gas silicate blocks. Gas silicate belongs to the category of products modern technologies. He has his own merits, forcing him to make a choice in his favor when it comes to building a bath.

They differ:

  • reliability;
  • long service life;
  • safety in terms of ecology;
  • fire resistance;
  • good thermal insulation properties;
  • that does not rot;
  • ease of installation;
  • small price.

Important question during the construction of a bath - a foundation device. More often than others, a strip foundation is made for such a structure using reinforced concrete, rubble or brick.

For screw foundation use special piles on which the structure will rely. The columnar foundation is one of the most economical. With the help of pillars, you can arrange a base for small bath with a terrace.

Design

In order to get exactly what you need when designing a bath, you need to keep in mind the following:

  • for how many people the washing complex with an open area for recreation should be designed;
  • whether it will be used only in summer or will it also be able to be used in winter;
  • what layout will be most suitable;
  • what material to build it from;
  • what is the cost of construction.

If the bath is to be used only in warm weather, you don’t have to think much about warming the dressing room. If the bath is operated year-round, the location of the entrance to it becomes especially important.

Proper planning reduces construction costs. So, if you make a comfortable outdoor barbecue area that easily accommodates many people, a guest room may not be needed.

Sometimes it is enough to attach a terrace to existing bath if it's new enough. If the bath is an old building, it is better to place a recreation area under the roof between the washing building and the house. It is important to choose a place for it so as not to violate the existing architectural and stylistic idea.

The area of ​​​​the bath can be different - from small sizes to impressive ones, for example, 6x4, 3 by 9 meters and so on. On a large plot there is a place for a structure measuring 6 by 9 meters. It is suitable for a large family and a large company. Such a space can easily accommodate not only a steam room, a washing room, but also a kitchen, a bathroom, a relaxation room, a billiard room, and so on. Bath at the same time can be two-story. On the second floor it makes sense to make a spacious guest room. The terrace can be equipped with a stove that looks like a fireplace.

Such a recreational complex can be made, for example, from logs. Layout variations are possible. For example, if you arrange a living room on the ground floor, separating it from the terrace with a glass wall, this room will always have a lot of light, and the terrace itself can look larger. When the weather changes, it will be convenient for guests to move from the open area to the living room and back.

Some projects of baths with attics provide for an external staircase to the second floor from the side of the terrace. Thus, you can win additional space in the house itself. Although many may consider such a design decision controversial.

Sometimes it is easier to attach a bathhouse to an existing house, including one with a garage. In this case, an extension of 5x6 meters with a terrace will be enough. The functionality of housing will expand, and in the heat it will be possible to spend time outdoors in a place protected from the sun.

You can take on a project corner bath with a terrace. With this approach to planning, it can take up little space on the site, while remaining roomy inside. Such the project will be especially interesting when the bathhouse is placed very close to a residential building. There are also corner terrace projects that make sense to apply in this case.

If you approach the matter thoroughly, you can aim at a real bath cottage. In addition to the bath, it can carry the functions of a wide variety of recreation. Here you can select rooms for guests, a playground for children, dances and barbecues. In summer, such a complex makes it possible to live outdoors most of the time.

When developing a bath project, you need to take into account a number of nuances related to the location and arrangement of the terrace. A place for it must be allocated taking into account the direction of the wind. The building of the bath should obscure the site, and at the same time the hearth, so that vacationers definitely do not have to breathe smoke.

If the task of the terrace is to shelter people from the hot sun, it should not be built on the south side.. It will be good only if the owners like to sunbathe.

Of course, the surrounding landscape cannot be ignored. It would be strange to have a terrace overlooking an outdoor toilet or a fence. It is much more pleasant to see a forest, a river or a lake from this site. From a planning point of view, the terrace can be located frontally, that is, along the facade of the main building, on the side, as well as at an angle and around the entire perimeter of the bath.

For a small company, a platform of size 7-8 will suffice square meters. But if the territory allows, it is better to make it at least 9-10 squares. In this case, among other things, a couple of sun loungers or armchairs can be easily accommodated here. Yes, and a person busy cooking barbecue will have enough space to turn around. At the same time, the oven heat will not interfere with others.

The floor is the easiest to lay wooden planks. Although paving slabs will fit too. On large terraces, natural stone is used for such a coating.

There are a lot of typical projects of baths with terraces. When creating variants of these objects, architectural bureaus take into account the requirements for the use of certain building materials and installation methods. Although no one will forbid the implementation of an individual project.

Design Options

For a pleasant pastime in a bath with a terrace, you should carefully approach the design of the interior and outdoor area. Often from the inside the room is sheathed with clapboard of a certain tone. It is better to choose soft shades that will set you up for relaxation.

It is necessary to make sure that there are no large ledges and sharp corners in the rooms.. Even if there is enough space in the washroom, steam room or rest room, a person in a relaxed state can unsuccessfully touch the ledge and injure himself. For the same reason care must be taken to ensure that the floors are not slippery.

For interior design it is better to use natural materials. Modern ones, such as plastic, are not “friends” with the bath, as they can melt or begin to secrete unpleasant odors. Even if they do not poison, the impression of the rest will be spoiled.

In the bath, you need to provide all the necessary accessories: brooms, hats, aroma oils, shampoos, soap, washcloths. Under them, it is good to highlight a convenient shelf, which is always easy to reach.

For lighting, it is better not to use bright lamps that do not allow you to tune in to relaxation. It is better to let the light be yellow and soft.

The design of the outdoor area is also of great importance. It may have thick curtains that enclose the terrace space from the hot sun or cold. Sliding elements made of glass or polycarbonate can be used here. Thanks to this, the terrace can be used almost all year round.

An important part is the oven on the terrace. The overall impression of a bath with a terrace largely depends on its device and design. A separate foundation is laid for the barbecue. The furnace is made of refractory bricks on a high base.. During its construction, it is better to provide a niche for storing a small supply of firewood.

As for the occurrence of smoke, a separate chimney with a high pipe is created to remove it, so that bad smell and the fumes did not spread over the terrace and bathhouse.

IN modern conditions The notion of a “Russian bath” has expanded from an ordinary place for ablution into a complex with a wide range of functions, which includes various types of recreation. In this regard, projects of baths with a terrace and a barbecue have become in demand (photos are presented on the page).

This solution allows you to significantly save space in your backyard or suburban area. A bathhouse with a terrace under one roof is implemented in different projects, which ultimately allows you to get a comfortable outdoor recreation area where you can enjoy food, drinks and socializing.

The relevance of the location of the bath complex

It is customary to call a terrace an extension of an open type, adjacent to the main building. This site has the following features:

  • It has reliable roof, protecting from possible precipitation;
  • to a certain extent protected from the wind on some sides;
  • the space has a solid wood or tile floor;
  • on this territory there is furniture in the form of benches, chairs, rocking chairs, dining tables.

Popular bath projects with an attic and a terrace include a cooking area on an open fire:

  • open grill;
  • B-B-Q;
  • stationary stone oven, etc.

The fencing of this site is in most cases used in decorative form and can have a height of about 1 meter from floor level or close the space from floor to ceiling with a rare decorative grille with large gaps.

Individual features of projects

Various architectural bureaus offer many options for bath projects with a terrace. Each of them is based on certain requirements regarding the materials used, the location and methods of installation. This is due to the fact that there are 6x4 bath projects with a terrace or a 6x6 bath project with a terrace that require a certain allocated area for them.

To enter the terrace there is a small porch with three steps. The site itself is quite spacious. And on it, a stove with a barbecue or a barbecue area will be located without any problems.

In such a territory you can comfortably accommodate even several guests. This takes into account certain nuances of the location of the open extension:

  • The project of a bath with a large terrace and a barbecue may involve the location of an open area along the largest wall of the building or at the end of the building next to the exit from it.

  • In some cases, in small areas, the space of the dressing room is sacrificed in bath projects with a relaxation room on the second floor and a terrace next to the building. This approach will also save not only space, but also funds for the materials used.
  • original decorative fence will mark the perimeter of the recreation area under a canopy in the projects of baths with a large terrace.
  • When drawing up a plan of the territory with the installation of a stove or barbecue, it is necessary to provide a reliable chimney so that the combustion products do not create discomfort on the site.
  • For the project of a corner bath with a terrace, a barbecue area is allocated a far corner, and smoke is removed through a pipe leading out of the roof.

Terrace decoration

Projects frame baths with a terrace are often divided into two types according to the way the open area is designed:

  • fully open terrace area;
  • the presence of dense swinging screens made of fabric;
  • the use of sliding structures using glass or transparent polycarbonate.

The possibility provided in the project of one-story baths with a terrace to hermetically close and open the space with the help of window modules makes it possible to use this area almost all year round.

Removable elements made of polycarbonate or glass can be removed in the summer in the pantry to open up space in front of the guests on the terrace.

Using an open stove or barbecue

In those projects of a bathhouse with a kitchen and a terrace where the use of a barbecue or barbecue is supposed to be used, it is necessary to take into account the special conditions of the cooking zones on an open fire.

  • Installation stationary oven often held away from the main resting place.
  • It is advisable to provide shelter for the cooking area from possible bad weather in the form of precipitation or wind.
  • Mobile barbecues should be located in a fireproof place on a flat surface.
  • Individual decoration of the stove will emphasize the design of the terrace.
  • In cool weather, the stationary oven becomes additional source warmth for vacationers in the open summer area.

Featured Projects

If there is enough space on the site, it is possible to implement bath projects from logs with a terrace in the form of a small health complex. Such a platform is enough for almost any company from two or three families.

On the territory there is not only a bath with a steam room, but also a relaxation room. There is a terrace along the longitudinal wall. It is open and includes a barbecue oven. This project of a bath house with a terrace assumes the presence of two entrances to the site: from the back and front sides.

The spacious hall is equipped with a pair of spacious wardrobes, which contain some useful bathing equipment and clothes for changing. From this zone there are three further exits:

  • to the toilet, where there is a dormer window with natural light;
  • in the shower-washing room, after which there is a steam room;
  • in the living room, where there are all conditions for a cozy pastime.

This arrangement allows you to properly manage the space and provides all the opportunities for comfortable movement around the bath. The living room and terrace are separated by a huge glass window. It can be done in a panoramic format. This solution will provide more light into the room and visually expand the territory of the terrace.

Convenient seating area

The close location of the outdoor recreation area and the living room will allow you to move between these spaces at any time with a possible deterioration in the weather or its improvement.

Some projects of a bath house with an attic and a terrace provide for the installation of stairs to the second floor from the side of the terrace. This will save space inside the building.

In order to effectively organize the adjoining space and combine the spa area and the relaxation and entertainment area, it is convenient to combine open extensions to the house with the main building. There are many opportunities for creating such multifunctional objects, for example, projects of baths with a terrace and a barbecue, photos of various interesting solutions talk about the increasing demand for such a solution.

Advantages of combining a sauna with a terrace and a barbecue

The combination of several objects in one room helps:

  • create maximum comfort;
  • correctly zone the site, dividing the space into a recreation area and an area for agricultural plantings;
  • to simplify the maintenance of the site;
  • reduce construction and operating costs in the future.

Traditionally, a terrace is an open or glazed area combined with a bathhouse. common roof and foundation. The size of the terrace can be different, it all depends on the size of the plot, the hospitality of the owners and the size of the family, but the optimal size is 8-10 sq.m.

The combination of a spa area, including a bath or sauna, and sometimes a small swimming pool with a terrace, has a number of benefits:

  • Saving space, a relaxation room can be located on the terrace;
  • Placement of additional devices, such as a barbecue oven or an open barbecue;
  • Simplification of connection of communications. For example, for lighting, it is enough to lay one power cable with a common switchboard.

Also, a sauna with a barbecue terrace can partially serve as a summer kitchen. During the rest, you will have the opportunity to take a steam bath and have a small picnic at the same time, you don’t need to go far from building to building, everything will be at hand.

The content of the project for the construction of a bath with a terrace

Prior to construction, you should familiarize yourself with permits Russian Federation for the construction of such structures.

According to the provision of part 17 of article 51 of the urban planning code of the Russian Federation, the construction of a bathhouse, as an auxiliary construction, does not require a special permit. But in order to secure property rights, and in accordance with Art. 25.3 of the Law "On state registration of rights to real estate and transactions with it”, such an object as a bath should be registered. To do this, there is a simplified procedure for submitting an application to the ROSREESTR and paying the state duty.

Such a step will protect against possible fines for unauthorized construction in the future.

In addition, it must be remembered that the location of the bath relative to other buildings on its site or buildings on neighboring sites is regulated by SNiP 30-02-97 “Planning and building up the territories of horticultural associations of citizens, buildings and structures” and should not be less than 8 m.

Insertion into the collective sewerage for outflow Wastewater, connection to the power grid is not possible without agreement with local utilities and energy companies by obtaining and agreeing Specifications(THAT.)

The project of a bath with a terrace and a barbecue should contain:

  1. Architectural and construction part. This section of the project includes views of all facades, floor plan and section. It is at this stage that the future interior and exterior are determined, and it is also described:
  • foundation arrangement;
  • construction of external walls and roofing;
  • exterior and interior decoration.
  1. Engineering part. This section of the project includes schemes for laying engineering networks:
  • electricity and water supply;
  • sewage and sewerage device.

The project is accompanied by an estimate with the cost of work. Design prices usually start at $500. You can use numerous projects on the Internet, but most often they do not contain the most important parts, such as laying the foundation or laying networks. This is due to the fact that foundation work and connection to engineering networks required individually, taking into account the characteristics of the site.

Even if the construction of a bath on the site is carried out independently, in order to foresee everything in advance necessary work and materials, as well as estimate the cost, such a project must be done at least in a draft version.


Smoke removal should be provided in advance, depending on which boiler is chosen for the bath, and the issue of smoke removal for the barbecue oven should also be resolved. The equipment manufacturer's instructions usually contain the necessary requirements for the height of the chimney.

Since the barbecue is located in an open or well-ventilated area, there is no need to equip a classic high chimney. The pipe may be small size, but you should pay attention to the direction of the wind, usual for the site, so that the smoke does not drift back into the room. For an outdoor barbecue or barbecue, it is advisable to organize a protective zone so that coals and sparks do not spoil the floorboards. It is convenient if there is a small woodpile for firewood or a box for storing coal.

Projects of baths with a terrace and a barbecue. Material selection and standard solutions

One of the most common materials for building a bath is wooden shields, timber or rounded log. This material "breathes", is environmentally friendly, and keeps heat well. Interior with natural wood creates a unique atmosphere of comfort and relaxation. But a wooden structure will require mandatory protection from excess moisture inside and the formation of mold as a result. Impregnation is also desirable wooden structures flame retardants to prevent fire.

No less in demand for the construction of baths and brick, shell rock or any other natural stone. Especially if it is not a traditional bath or sauna, but a hammam or a Roman bath with other temperature conditions. Stone construction has many advantages:

  • No significant measures are required to counter the fire;
  • More options for interior solutions;
  • Exposure to moisture does not lead to the rapid spread of mold and destruction.

The disadvantage is:

  • Longer time to reach the required temperature for the bath;
  • Greater fuel consumption, depending on the selected boiler system.


Table 1. Temperature regime depending on the type of bath


Regardless of the material chosen, a ventilation system to remove condensate must be carefully considered, especially if the oven is equipped with a light steam generator and a smoke exhaust system.

For example, a stove-heater, which is obligatory for a bath, requires a competent chimney device; an incorrectly connected pipe, with an outlet through combustible materials or excessively insulated, can lead to a fire.


The heater stove can be made of bricks with your own hands with a brick chimney. When performing these works, it should be taken into account that due to the fact that the lower part of the stove is heated, the foundation of the bath and the heater must be separate.

It should also be taken into account that:

  • The foundation of the furnace must have a depth below the freezing level of the soil by at least 0.7 m;
  • The size of the foundation must be at least half a brick larger than the cross section of the furnace.

The construction of any building, including baths, begins with pouring the foundation. In the case of the construction of a bathhouse with a terrace and a barbecue, there is important point which is definitely worth paying attention to. Under the terrace and the bath building itself, it is necessary to lay a different foundation, because the bath is heavier than the terrace. For a bath of a large area or a bath of brick or foam concrete, a strip foundation is needed, and for a small bath, a pile foundation is also suitable. For an ordinary wooden terrace, a pile foundation is suitable. If the terrace is on difficult ground prone to landslides or freezing, for greater reliability it is better to use screw piles. Since the structure of the bath is heavier than the terrace, the soil under the bath will sag faster than under the terrace, and this can eventually lead to damage to the entire building. To avoid such an imbalance, the foundations must be separated by a layer of insulation.


Sauna with barbecue terrace. Examples of economical solutions

The most popular option for organizing a recreation area for a small area is a bathhouse, including:

  • Steam room with stove and benches for 3-5 persons;
  • Lounge area with table and seats where you can relax


It is desirable to provide a small room for undressing, it can also combine the functions of an auxiliary room for storing bath equipment, towels and the like.

It is ideal to provide a small bathroom with a shower, but most often the site's capabilities do not allow this. The most successful layouts can be found in the photo, below, or the video in the article.

If the territory allows for the most organic organization of space for recreation, the project of a corner bath with a terrace and a barbecue can be taken as a base. This layout allows you to use the space in many ways, allowing you to simultaneously organize recreation for companies of different ages. For example, while adults are relaxing in the bath, a children's company can gather on the second terrace. Or the steam room can have two exits to the relaxation room and the barbecue area.

Successful layout options for a corner bath and interesting option exterior finish can be seen in the photo below.
