Bringing Nordic Sauna Culture To Your Backyard With Tyto

ByMyProperty Life

Luxury saunas are no longer reserved for five-star hotels – you can now enjoy the experience right in your own backyard. Out of the Valley’s new Tyto sauna brings home the restorative magic of Nordic sauna culture, offering immediate access to relaxation and wellness. Measuring just 2.5 feet by 8.5 feet, this compact, beautifully crafted retreat fits effortlessly into smaller outdoor spaces, delivering big on design, comfort, and therapeutic benefits. With Tyto, escaping the demands of daily life has never been easier – or closer.

While saunas are deeply rooted in Nordic culture, serving as spaces for both relaxation and social connection, their popularity has transcended borders. In the United Kingdom where Out of the Valley is based, the allure of sauna living has grown rapidly. “It is now rapidly becoming a normal part of our everyday wellness routine,” shares Chris Selman, co-founder of Out of the Valley. The brand’s bespoke saunas seamlessly complement a variety of landscapes, from charming gardens in Notting Hill to the shores of a remote Scottish loch. With Tyto, Out of the Valley is making this timeless tradition even more accessible for those limited on backyard space. “We have created a sauna small enough to be tucked into the corner of any urban garden, so fans of heat therapy can be just steps away from this immersive and therapeutic healing experience,” Selman explains.

Each Tyto is made to order and handcrafted in the brand’s Devon workshop, ensuring the highest level craftsmanship. The sauna boasts a brushed and oiled black larch exterior, reminiscent of alpine cabins, and an interior of smooth aspen wood for a calming atmosphere. A striking edge-to-edge panoramic window offers expansive views while maintaining a sense of connection to the outdoors, with optional privacy glass available for added seclusion. The sauna houses a floor-mounted heater – available in wood-burning or electric options – surrounded by rocks for practicing löyly, the Finnish tradition of pouring water onto the hot rocks to create steam and increase humidity. Thoughtful features like adjustable LED lighting, an outdoor deck, and hooks for robes and towels add convenience and comfort. Optional add-ons, such as an outdoor shower, plunge pool, bench seating, extended deck, sauna heater Wi-Fi, and log storage, allow users to tailor their Tyto to their personal wellness needs.

With the Tyto’s harmonious blend of contemporary design, traditional craftsmanship, and thoughtful details, it’s the perfect elegant addition to any backyard oasis.

  • Blackened Wood Apartment

    Taiwanese architecture studio CTT Architects designed this interior project for a doctor in Taipei City. The apartment is located on the 21st floor of the residential tower nestled in the mountains surrounding the Taipei Basin. The design concept places emphasis on the connection to the surrounding vistas. In contrast with the original layout, the living area has been rearranged such that one can enjoy the amazing urban night views whilst introducing the external greenery inside during the day. We have also tailored the layout to meet the requirements of the client’s modern life. Following a busy day at work, he can completely unwind in the living room in the midst of the mesmerising urban night views; and be awoken by the dappled morning sunlight reflecting off the surrounding green mountains. We believed that every aspect of an interior design requires a bespoke response to its own contextual surrounding as well as to the individual needs of the occupants. The different spatial functions such as bedroom and bathroom are seen as different grey units in the public space. However, homely styling is found inside the master bedroom. Wooden finishings are used to complement subtle light grey walls allowing the stunning views to be the main element – lush green mountain landscapes. At the entrance to the apartment, the simple grey wall with a small bench gives an air of simplicity in complete contrast with the mountain views seen through the expanse of the three window units, which speak for themselves. In the kitchen and dining area, the open plan provides ample space that can be adapted flexibly to suit the changing needs of the modern city dweller. In terms of material selection, fine textured black charred timber panels are deliberately chosen to frame the surrounding mountain and city views. The design strategy is to use the black charred wall to contrast with the green and sky during the day; at night, the blackened panels blend seamlessly into the night view. The custom-made black island comes with black taps to contrast with the white kitchen joinery behind. When it comes to detailing, our approach is to delineate different architectural elements through shadow gaps. For example the walls and ceilings are detached using shadows gaps which are also accentuated by indirect lighting after sunset. Every architectural element has been detached including the ceiling, beams, and walls to showcase themselves as individual elements and avoiding detractive decorations.
