Basic places such as houseplans .com is a place to look. Also search houseplans with any details you are looking for. Such as "modern house plans" or "ranch style home plans" etc. I like looking at floor plans. But if a site is not user friendly I don't enjoy it and find another site. There must be ? hundreds of website options. If you are really building from scratch, sure meet with an architect. But I think it is useful to look at many plans to be able to rule in or out what you like. Other sites I like are builder websites, even basic ones that are national builders. And you can go to open houses or tour model homes to see what the floorplans look like in 3d. I have been a bit obsessed with floor plans for over twenty years and like to look at them and imagine what it would be like to live in such a home. If you have not spent time doing this, the floorplan alone can be misleading. This here site is a great site to post and discuss plans. But people can be critical so have thick skin. lafdr

Infrared radiation is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that contributes most to radiated heat. But because of material-specific absorption characteristics, you can in fact have visible light contributing to heat radiation, and on the other hand you can have infrared light that isn't contributing heat. Also, the spectrum of a black-body radiator technically would need to be part of this discussion (that would be the walls emitting IR). But for the purposes of a sauna, that's all moot. You're not going to heat up the walls until they're visibly glowing, nor are our naked bodies made out of materials that are infrared transparent. So, for all practical purposes, all radiated heat in a sauna comes from infrared radiation. Or is this another case where some marketing person is using the technical term from physics and redefined it to mean something different. Wouldn't surprise me. That happens all the time. If so, please educate me

Anyone know anything about these
