Nestled in the heart of New York City’s vibrant SoHo district, Sui Yoga is a sanctuary dedicated to wellness, mindfulness, and design excellence. Inspired by the Latin phrase sui generis—”of its own kind”—and the Japanese word “Sui,” representing water, Sui Yoga invites guests to flow through a carefully curated space that honors nature, light, and personal transformation.
With 6,000 square feet of biophilic design, Himalayan salt walls, curated lighting, eco-conscious materials, and a wellness café, Sui Yoga offers a tranquil experience that bridges body, mind, and spirit. To further elevate this harmony, Sui Yoga integrated PriWatt® Switchable Film for seamless privacy, ambient control, and design continuity.
Sui Yoga’s architectural ethos required maintaining openness, natural light, and a sense of calm throughout the space. However, some functions—such as guided meditation, private instruction, or restorative sessions—demanded periodic privacy. Curtains or blinds would have disrupted the clean lines and serene visual flow of the studios. The challenge was to achieve flexible, non-intrusive privacy in a way that aligns with Sui Yoga’s calming environment.
PriWatt® Self-Adhesive Switchable Film was installed on key interior glass partitions to provide instant privacy at the touch of a switch. Using advanced polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) technology, PriWatt® film transforms from fully transparent to opaque in milliseconds, offering unmatched versatility.
With this solution, Sui Yoga gained the ability to adapt its space in real-time—without interrupting the design flow, natural light, or atmosphere.
