AELIA Spa – Reception Area
Reception & Waiting Lounge | Interior concept
The AELIA Spa reception area is conceived as a transitional space between the outside world and the wellness experience. The concept focuses on creating a calm and welcoming environment that gently prepares the visitor, both mentally and sensorially, before entering the spa areas.
Design approach
Rather than a conventional service point, the reception is designed as a space of pause and arrival. Soft geometries, low seating, and relaxed spatial rhythms foster a sense of comfort and ease from the very first moment.
Spatial organization
The layout is organized into reception and waiting zones with a clear yet discreet separation. Circulation remains fluid and unforced, allowing visitors to gradually shift into the slower pace of the spa environment.
Materiality & textures
The concept is defined by natural materials and soft, neutral tones, emphasizing matte finishes, stone textures, and warm upholstery. Material choices support a timeless and serene atmosphere, reinforcing a sense of sensory balance.
Light & atmosphere
Lighting is indirect and subdued, carefully designed to enhance surfaces and create depth without strong contrasts. Light acts as a guiding element, subtly leading visitors toward the inner wellness spaces.
Guest experience
The AELIA Spa reception introduces the core values of the spa experience — calm, harmony, and care — offering a first impression rooted in tranquility rather than visual excess.
