The project is regarding a proposal for a Beer spa right next to an existing hotel in Iceland. The proposal houses a Beer Spa , brewery, and tertiary functions that enhances the experience of visitors of this space with respect to Beer and Iceland and its culture. Beer in Iceland likely dates back to the Iceland's settlement by Norsemen. Beer is an important part of every celebration in Iceland which reflects in our proposal also. The site is located in the Mývatn region of Iceland , adjacent to an existing Hotel of Iceland. This region is located to the north of Iceland, it boasts some of the country's most breathtaking natural wonders and is considered the Northern Lights Capital of Iceland. As part of the Diamond Circle—a popular travel route in northern Iceland—Lake Mývatn and its surrounding area offer visitors an idealistic setting for birdwatching, fishing, relaxing in natural hot springs, and exploring the enchanting lava fortress of Dimmuborgir. Not to mention, the Northern Lights are more frequently sighted in this region of Iceland. Among these astonishing attractions, the Skútustaðagígar craters stand out as a remarkable geological feature which is in sight from the site. The sole of 'SKOAL' beer spa lies on the fact of “CHEERS”, be it the brewery, the lounge, the therapy room or the beer bath. “Skoal” is used to express friendly feelings towards one’s companions before drinking. The word comes from Old Norse word called Skal - which means a tradition of passing around a bowl often filled with beer among friends. Irrespective of the space, users are encouraged to have a cheers and sip down on the freshly brewed in-house beer and thus the note of the beer spa has been defined with this sole character which has developed the framework of spaces thus formed.
