What are you making? A beautiful communal sauna for Edge City India: a warm, restorative space where residents can recover, reset, and connect throughout the month. The sauna will be part of the village’s daily rhythm — post-workout recovery, evening decompression, and late-night conversation. It is simple infrastructure, but high-leverage: a shared place where people can slow down, regulate, and meet each other outside the formal schedule. How will your project impact the world? Sauna hangs are a core part of the Edge experience. Across Edge villages, the community has likely spent well over 10,000 combined hours in saunas: recovering after workouts, processing the day, debating ideas, forming friendships, and turning loose conversations into real collaborations. A high-quality sauna at Edge City India would be extremely well received because it supports something the community already values: embodied, healthy, high-trust gathering. It creates a daily wind-down ritual that helps residents sustain intense work while deepening the social fabric of the village. The best popup villages are shaped as much by rituals as by programming. Talks and workshops create signal, but shared daily practices create culture. A sauna gives founders, scientists, artists, researchers, and locals a relaxed third place where the village can breathe. Why are you the right person? Edge City is a nonprofit co-founded by Janine Leger and Timour Kosters. The team has deep experience designing temporary villages where people do serious work while living well together. Because Edge City designs the village environment end to end, it can integrate the sauna into the daily rhythm of Edge City India — near workouts, recovery spaces, evening decompression, and community rituals.
