Kos sauna opens!
Kos is a spacious and generous sauna located just a few hours north of New York City, floating on the pristine Saratoga Lake. Utopic is involved as both the architectural designer and a partner in operations, strategy, and community building.
With large, bright spaces, the gentle rocking of the waves, and panoramic views of the lake, it is designed to lower the threshold for people who have never tried winter swimming or a sauna before. It creates a connection to nature that few, if any, other US saunas can provide. The sauna room, the architecture, and the community-focused operations are based on years of experience running community saunas in Norway.
