Inaugurating an engaging collaboration with Patricia Urquiola, EFFE unveils Baluar, the new modular sauna and hammam system, where contemporary design, material elegance, and technological innovation converge in an unprecedented and immersive wellness experience. Conceived through Patricia Urquiola's empathetic and sensory creativity, the collection draws inspiration from the bulwark, an element of medieval fortified architecture: a solid and protective structure, designed both to defend and to observe the surrounding landscape. In Baluar, this architectural figure is reinterpreted as a space of protection and retreat—a compact volume that extends outward while sheltering an intimate interior, designed for slowing down, pausing, and regenerating.
