straighten inner wall in basement. wood studs ?

[macq]

I've been reading a bit here on the forum about how to frame a wall in a basement. The idea is to create a shower/sauna corner in half of the laundry room.

But what I'm wondering is if it's enough to have metal studs in the ceiling and on the floor with about a 3 cm gap from the concrete wall. Then use wooden studs to "build up" the wall. In that case, the wooden studs wouldn't have any contact with either the wall or the floor and shouldn't become damp, right?

The reason for using wooden studs is that it's easier to nail the sauna panel and it's a little cheaper.

I also don't plan to insulate the new wall for various reasons.

Personally, I am against anything that involves wood when it comes to basement walls, even if using metal studs. Why not build with leca?

but to build a sauna and shower with leca blocks? What were you thinking then?

Tiles are something that has become more common in saunas.

Eh, but, TS wanted wood paneling in the sauna...

..and then it would be appropriate to use Metal studs+Wood studs

but I'm wondering about an answer to my question

can I do as I planned with the wooden studs? Possibly, maybe you can plastic coat the ends of the wooden studs that are closest to the floor?

as I understand it, it's only wood that lies directly against the concrete that absorbs water... or have I misunderstood everything?
