Effe Unveils Two Innovative Home Saunas
Effe, the renowned Italian wellness brand, has introduced its latest 2023 sauna offerings: the elegant Aladdin sauna and the versatile Natural modular unit, which can be customized as a sauna, hammam, or infrared sauna.
The Aladdin, a brainchild of the late designer Rodolfo Dordoni in collaboration with Michele Angelini, boasts a minimalist design punctuated by a mirrored accent that graces the base, visible both inside and out. “Aladdin evokes visions of floating carpets and the sensation of levitation, a design inspiration to seamlessly integrate with any home,” the brand explains. Notably, the sauna’s benches are constructed from either light-striped oak or the darker wenge, using just two pieces of wood. Available in two standard dimensions, the Aladdin sauna also offers custom sizing, with a special feature of an internal grès porcelain platform, mirroring the allure of a flying carpet.
The Natural collection, curated by Marco Williams Fagioli, stands out with its uniform heat-treated aspen exterior and clear-glass frontal design. However, its interiors vary to cater to sauna, hammam, or infrared sauna enthusiasts. “The Natural line converges the essence of a hammam, sauna, and infrared sauna benefits in a singular design,” says Effe. The use of transparent glass enhances luminosity, ensuring users feel connected to their environment without any sense of confinement. The sauna variant of the Natural features a spacious two-person bench and a lower portable seat, both adorned with grès porcelain. An illuminated satin-finish side glass panel magnifies the ambience. The unit’s three-kilowatt heater ensures optimal temperatures, while the hammam edition is draped in grès porcelain, radiating warmth and texture, powered by Effe’s Nuvola Smart Power steam generator. All models come standard with colour therapy, a built-in shower, and diverse fitting finishes.
Notably, the infrared sauna model of the Natural Collection employs infrared rays, directly warming the body at milder temperatures than traditional saunas, providing muscle and tendon relaxation.
Effe’s commitment to advancing home spa experiences is evident in both the Aladdin and Natural collections. Collaborating with The Anti-Inflammaging Company (A-I), Effe conducted a pivotal study that revealed the potential of heat therapy in combating low-grade chronic inflammation, a factor in nearly half of premature global deaths. Effe’s recent digital launch, the My Effe app, offers users tailored advice on inflammation reduction, exemplifying the brand’s dedication to wellness optimization.
Previously known as Effegibi, Effe’s vision encapsulates the transformation of spas into modern, Italian-designed furniture pieces suitable for diverse home spaces.
