Essentially Extraordinary

The brief called for ‘No ordinary spa experience’. Osborn House’s private boutique spa was, like the hotel, to be a very special experience that evoked an ambience from a previous era. Our design focus was very much on the curation of a delicate balance: globally sourced vintage pieces, the masterful restoration of existing character, and contemporary expressions of beautiful craftsmanship.

Absent are clinical spa associations, and any thought of minimalism. Instead, this spa evokes a slower time, with the feel of a classic apothecary, as if from a film set. While utterly luxurious, the emphasis here is on healing rather than simply indulging, for a feel-good experience that is the very definition of restorative bliss. We designed generously sized walk-in showers lined in handmade wall tiles, and treatment rooms curated with a restrained palette. ­Deep natural sea, forest and earth tones predominate, with brass-edged mirrors and tapware, and richly veined stone.

We also designed a special transition space for after treatments for clients to relax and take in the superb, uplifting garden views.
