- At the reception visitors receive white bathrobes, towels and slippers before they go to the wardrobe and shower and eventually enter the sauna. The sauna is usually set up in the middle of a big open space and has a window with a view on a relaxing area in front of it. Here people can sit or lay down in between sauna sessions. Above them a dimmed spot is orbiting very slowly around the space and its visitors like a sun casting light and shadows that slowly rotate, giving a sense of fleeting time (see Orbit). A round clock is suspended from a white helium balloon and floats slowly through the space (see The Long Now).
