BOTTANICAL SPA: Tschuggen Bergoase spa

February 15th 2007 10:23
The Tschuggen Bergoase spa, nestled in the mountains near St. Moritz, Switzerland, takes on a cathedral-like quality.

It was designed by Swiss architect Mario Botta who is renowned for his museums and sacred spaces. In contrast to the neighboring Tschuggen Hotel, the spa wears a sleek, timeless design that signals a shift into an interior space of natural quiet.

Inside the spa, the light, open space encourages quiet and reflection. Entering becomes a metaphor for taking steps inside oneself and proffers an opportunity for cherishing rare moments of meditative calm, much like one might find in a temple.
