One of the standout features of Aqua Spa is its strategic use of lighting elements. These elements draw attention to the rugged surfaces of the stone-covered walls, creating a captivating play of light and shadow. Additionally, the flecked gold wallpaper changes color depending on the viewing angle, adding a touch of intrigue and enchantment to the space.
Another striking design element is the metal geometric gradation pattern that covers a large area of the premises. This pattern not only adds visual interest but also helps to visually distinguish the spa center from other parts of the establishment. It serves as a unique and eye-catching feature that sets Aqua Spa apart.
The realization of this design involved a meticulous selection of textures and materials that harmonize perfectly with one another. The designers prioritized richness and contrast, using carefully chosen decors to add interest and highlight the uniqueness of the spa. The result is a space that transports visitors back in time while still incorporating advanced technology.
Spanning approximately 42,160 square feet, Aqua Spa is located in Bukit Mertajam, Malaysia. Its Oriental-themed interior, luxurious amenities, and attention to detail make it a standout destination for those seeking a truly indulgent spa experience.
The Aqua Spa experience is designed to cater to an exquisite lifestyle and luxury indulgence. The space offers a range of activities, including a tea and chess room, Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room, pool, buffet, and VIP lounge. The interior is thoughtfully planned, with dark spaces for relaxation and light spaces for activities. Textured wallpaper and natural stone finishes create visual interest and add to the overall ambiance.
Designing Aqua Spa presented its fair share of challenges. Due to the geographical location of Malaysia, many materials had to be sourced from other countries to achieve the desired ambiance and authenticity. However, the effort was well worth it, as the end result is a stunning, comfortable, and classy space that allows visitors to unwind and enjoy a moment of tranquility.
Aqua Spa, designed by Fuka Interior Decoration Sdn Bhd, is a testament to the power of thoughtful design in creating a sanctuary of relaxation and luxury. Inspired by the idea of living in a cabin surrounded by the beauty of nature, this spa offers a space that is both comfortable and visually captivating. With its dark hues, wooden elements, and touches of red bricks and leather, Aqua Spa provides a warm and inviting atmosphere that is perfect for indulging in the goods provided by the lounge.
