In this episode of Blueprints without Boundaries, we step into the world of engineer and DIY enthusiast Sam Girouard as he builds a Scandinavian-inspired sauna retreat from scratch. Literally.
Over five months of work, multiple AutoCAD iterations, and a whole lot of cedar later, Sam has turned his vision into a breathtaking backyard escape.
From start to finish, this project was nothing short of meticulous. Using milled cedar that had been sitting untouched in a local mill for over 15 years, Sam put his engineering brain to work, blending design theory with hands-on craftsmanship. He even brought in ancient Japanese techniques like Shou Sugi Ban to char and preserve the exterior cladding; a bold aesthetic choice that also protects the wood from the elements.
Inside: intricate electrical work, mood lighting, layered benching, and that clean, minimalist sauna design that gives it true Nordic vibes. Outside? A deck built to soak in the surroundings, chill zones for post-steam hangs, and every little detail aligned with the CAD vision.
This is more than just a build, it’s a masterclass in patience, detail, and doing things the hard way… on purpose. And in Sam’s case, that hands-on experience translates directly into his day job as an engineer, proving once again that when you build it yourself, the payoff is way more than just the finished product.
Watch Episode 6 now to see what it really takes to go from blueprint to a backyard paradise.
Here’s How.
