The Rentable Folding Sauna, BYO Awkward Eye Contact

What I hate about camping, or going anywhere that doesn’t have a roof? The lack of immediate access to an easily portable six-person sauna. You know, one with a wood-burning fire, a bench, a changing room, maybe a shower. The essentials, I mean.

Which is why the Folding Sauna by Studio Elmo Vermijs gets me all sweaty already: it’s got all the comforts of (some very fancy person’s) home in a package that fits in your car. It costs $US215 a day to rent it, or $US365 per week – the latter of which seems like a disproportionate bargain and quite probably less than your mortgage.

The Folding Sauna seems primarily available in Europe, but hopefully some enterprising sauna enthusiast stateside is writing up a franchise proposal as we speak. In the meantime, I’ll work on angling my towel fold juuuusssssst right. [Rent-a-Project via The PopUp City via Born Rich]
