Nearly a decade ago, high-end single-family homes began incorporating gyms, spas, and saunas. However, the real shift came after COVID-19, when we all became more aware of the importance of self-care and integrating wellness spaces into our homes.
Manuel Ruiz Moriche, co-founder and Creative Director of ARK Architects, explains that since then, wellness has evolved into a fundamental pillar of residential design. It’s no longer just about gyms or spas but includes specialized areas such as hyperbaric chambers, cold treatments, relaxation zones, and meditation rooms—always closely connected to nature and the outdoors.
What were once secondary spaces have become premium areas that, like the kitchen, have transformed into key social and wellbeing hubs. At ARK, we seamlessly and elegantly integrate these spaces into the living environment, ensuring comfort, health, and a deep connection with the surroundings.
Because for ARK Architects, living well is an art reflected in every project.
