Innovation
The project has transformed the two rooms located in the tower next to the SPA, into an area totally dedicated to water and relaxation. However, the changes did not compromise the value of the tower: they maintained and further enhanced the view of the medieval town of Durbuy, its castle, the riverside and the surrounding landscape of great value. Another challenge faced by the designers was to be able to create a very bright, panoramic but well protected space, given the particularly harsh climate of the region. Commitment completed very well.
The intervention
During the redesign, the space was completely "emptied", keeping only and exclusively the structural columns and the wall perimeter of the tower. Subsequently, in order to create a true water wellness path, the space was divided between various activities :
- Hydrorelax pool
- Jacuzzi
- Watsu bath with salt water
- Cold water tub
- 2 sensory showers
- Panoramic relaxation area
The result is an area of total well-being, set in a unique and suggestive landscape. An intervention that has expanded the value of the structure, adding important skills to a resort that focuses on hospitality of great value.

THE PHASES OF THE PROJECT
- Analysis & site visit
The team identified the strengths and weaknesses of the structure through the analysis of the spaces and the evaluation of existing technologies. The goal: to collect all the useful elements to arrive at an accurate diagnosis of the reality of the SPA.
2 - Diagnosis and optimization plan, layout and all the technologies of the DRY Area
The intervention wanted to make the area as performing as possible therefore, after the diagnosis and dialogue with the management of the structure, an intervention plan was proposed to arrive at an optimally set Dry Area, in order to guarantee a service of a high standard with the highest possible profitability.
3 - Diagnosis and optimization plan, layout and all the technologies of the WET Area
The Water area is one of the most complex areas of the SPA for Layout and technologies. Also in this case, after diagnosis and dialogue with management, an intervention plan was drawn up to make the "WET Area" a strength, to expand the level and value of the services offered by the structure.
4 - Diagnosis and optimization plan for air, water treatment and energy management systems
The network of bbspa specialists then developed an intervention plan to ensure the well-being of the people who attend and work in the SPA.
