Celebrating the natural verdant landscape of its locale, Studio Tate created a collection of immersive spaces with circular architectural form at Relinque, to support an intuitive client journey, offering an ‘all gender’ day spa experience, with an inherently natural feeling palette. 

A functional floor plan underpins a day spa on one side ice and steam contrast therapy, hydrotherapy, body and face treatment spaces and yoga studio-offering holistic wellness. On the other side, a spinal clinic pilates and osteopathy complete the circular client journey with a natural flow as they move through the space. The functionality component was also key to enabling staff to work efficiently and support the client experience. 

A palette of greens, greys, burgundy and earth tones feature through the collective space, reflecting a sense of textural ‘earthiness’ whilst also being contemporary and sophisticated. A concrete floor in reception with coloured aggregate is offset by a forest green marble desk, forest green joinery and leather banquette seating, set against a backdrop of textured paint with timber battens. 

Within the spa, the five individually contained treatment rooms feature a colour datum in a deep rust tone and steam showers tiled in a soft, sage green, with a granite shower bench.
