AtelierFORTE is bringing back the Ice Age in style with the Mammuthus Belli. The Mammuthus Belli is a 30-foot sauna designed to look like a gigantic elephant. Now I have officially seen everything.
In addition to being 30 feet high, this massive sauna will also have 18-foot tusks that circulate water into the sauna with the main source of water coming from the belly. The body and support structures are set to be made using spruce wood, while the tusks are to be made out of iron. Perhaps the coolest feature of this sauna is that it is actually being built! That's right, construction on the Mammuthus Belli is set to start on the 12th of April, 2011 (tomorrow).
