Shed Sauna Conversion - Olympia, WA

11x16 shed conversion designed for the wet Northwest climate with Puget Sound views.

Bryan had an existing 11×16 shed he wanted to convert into a full sauna suite. We took it from stripped studs to a finished two-room layout — a hot sauna with proper heating and ventilation, plus an adjacent warm room for relaxing between sessions. The design was built around Olympia's wet Pacific Northwest climate, with large windows oriented toward Puget Sound views and wet-climate envelope details throughout.

Location: Olympia, WA
Size: 11x16 ft shed conversion
Capacity: 6 people
Tahoe Sauna Company recently completed designing my sauna in a stand-alone and previously existing shed structure. They were thorough with the design, responsive throughout the process, and connected me with a great builder who brought it all together.
