Aquamental Spa’s multi-sensory room concepts Scalable room concepts using water, light and acoustics, by Aquamental Spa, will launch in March. The rooms create relaxing and contemplative spaces and there are seven themes in total: Columns, Circles, Deep Sea, Flux, Torus, Swing and Stonefly.
In the Columns concept (pictured), users enter a system of transparent water-filled columns of various sizes that have an in-built light source. Pressure is pumped into the columns causing them to vibrate and make different tones, and causing the water levels fluctuate to create a wave-shaped room pattern. The system responds to the users movement round the room which is picked up by motion sensors – the faster they move the more pressure is pumped into the columns.

Filmmaker creates meditation rooms Moving Art, the company of US film director Louis Schwartzberg, has created an immersive room concept currently being tested at the Miraval resort and spa in Arizona. Visual Mediation and Visual Healing use time-lapse cinematography of natural images projected on ceiling-to-floor screens to create moods suited to the use of the space. For example, waterfall imagery is used in a water-based treatment room. Moving Art is also developing an interface to let spa guests choose the mood of their treatment room. The concept can be applied to any room or multifunctional space at a spa – even an interior with no windows. A premium can be added to treatments complemented by the technology, creating a higher revenue-generating space. A permanent Visual Meditation room is now being planned at Miraval with additional installations in the queue at other high-end hospitality venues in 2014.
