Wellness lounge is a main amenity area for a luxury multi-unit housing project in Seoul, Korea. The design intention is superimposing different programs that promote “holistic wellness” in one open floor plan in order for users to experience the difference aspects of life-supporting programs seamlessly. The space serves as a main concierge for residents of 142 units, a fitness center, a private golf, a private lounge, a library lounge, and a lobby, etc. along with various artistic installation . By weaving different programs in an unexpected way, the entire space promotes residents to engage with neighbors and utilize spaces more often.
This project's design objective is to create a residential amenity that can act as an "extended home" where residents can enhance and refresh their everyday experience by utilizing the space more actively. With this intention, the name "Wellness lounge" is not only referring to physical wellness that deals with exercise and workout, but the name also implies a lounge where holistic wellness is achieved- social, intellectual, emotional, financial, environmental, occupational, etc. The space creates a sense of well-being with cohesively designed physical space, scent, biophillic elements, and sound.
Existing structures play important roles as the different levels of boundaries amongst different programs by both disguising and revealing itself. The main spatial installation that creates a sense of boundaries for library lounge derived from one column in the center of the space. By re-sculpting and multiplying the massive-ness of the column, it became a sculptural gateway for the library lounge which acts as a center piece of the entire area.
What makes the experience special is that The residential amenity space that promotes holistic wellness: the name "Wellness lounge" refers to a lounge where holistic wellness is achieved- social, intellectual, emotional, financial, environmental, occupational, physical etc. The designer tried to stay away from typical "images" of the space that is related to wellness- using lots of green colors and wood. Instead, the designer tried to create a space where residents could feel special with added sense of hospitality and unique material pallets, and the entire space still feels soothing and peaceful for residents to refresh and promote all dimensions of holistic wellness.

서울 논현동에 위치한 하이엔드 주거 공간 ‘브라이튼 N40’. 그 안에는 입주민들을 위한 여러 공간이 마련되어 있는데, ‘웰니스 라운지’는 건강을 위한 다양한 프로그램을 입주민들이 하나의 개방된 공간에서 즐길 수 있도록 세심하게 설계된 공용 라운지다. 총 142세대의 입주민이 이용할 수 있는 라운지에는 메인 컨시어지 데스크를 비롯해 피트니스 센터, 프라이빗 골프 센터, 도서관 라운지 등 여러 기능적인 공간들이 모여 있다. 여기에 예술적인 설치물까지 더해져 입주민들은 더욱 쾌적하고 아름다운 분위기에서 다채로운 프로그램들을 즐길 수 있다. 이러한 구성 덕분에 입주민들은 이웃들과 자연스럽게 교류하고 소통하며 라운지를 더욱 자주 찾을 수 있게 된다. 이 프로젝트의 설계 목표는 입주민들이 이곳에서 좀 더 적극적으로 시간을 보내며 일상에 새로운 경험을 더하도록 돕는 한편, ‘확장된 또 다른 집’ 같은 기분을 느낄 수 있도록 하는 것이었다. ‘웰니스 라운지’라는 이름에는 단순히 운동을 위한 신체적인 웰니스에 머무르지 않고 사회적, 지적, 정서적, 재정적, 환경적, 직업적 등 삶 전반에 걸친 다양하고 전인적인 웰니스를 담았다. 은은한 향기와 자연스러운 소리, 친환경 요소를 실내 공간에 유입해 마음의 회복력을 이끄는 ‘바이오필릭’ 디자인은 입주민들에게 특별한 웰니스 경험을 선사한다. 라운지 내의 구조물 역시 이곳만의 고유한 분위기를 완성하는 데 중요한 역할을 한다. 다양한 프로그램의 경계를 자연스럽게 나눠주고 필요에 따라 그 존재가 드러났다 감춰지는 유연함도 갖췄다. 특히 도서관 라운지 중앙에 자리 잡은 굵은 기둥은 마치 조각 작품처럼 그 존재감을 드러내며, 공간의 경계이자 관문 역할을 한다. 인테그는 이 큼지막한 기둥의 거대함을 재해석하고 공간 전체의 중심인 조형물로 부각시켰다. 이 라운지가 더욱 특별한 이유는 ‘전인적 웰빙’을 실현하는 주거 커뮤니티라는 점에 있다. 인테그는 웰빙이란 단어에서 흔히 연상되는 그린 컬러나 나무 소재 같은 틀에 박힌 이미지에서 벗어나 입주민들이 한층 편안하고 평화로운 공간에서 진정한 재충전과 전인적인 웰빙을 누릴 수 있는 디자인을 완성했다.
