The Retreat at Blue Lagoon by Design Group Italia
The Retreat at Blue Lagoon is a beautiful hotel located in Grindavik, Iceland, designed in 2019 by Design Group Italia.
Description
The Retreat at Blue Lagoon Iceland is designed for an intimate, revitalizing dialogue between the natural and the manmade.
With Blue Lagoon now welcoming more than one million guests annually, the company wanted to create a more intimate, more exclusive way to experience the lagoon?s unique waters. The newly opened Retreat represents the fulfillment of this ambition. Nature, architecture, and design converge to bring forth a new world of wellbeing.
Built directly into an 800-year-old lava flow in the heart of the Reykjanes UNESCO Global Geopark, the Retreat encompasses a subterranean spa, geothermal lagoon, a restaurant that reimagines Iceland?s culinary traditions, and a 62-suite luxury hotel encircled by the Blue Lagoon?s mineral-rich waters. The architecture of the Retreat is by ReykjavÃk-based Basalt Architects. Milan-based Design Group Italia (DGI) created the experiential design. And the interior design was a collaborative effort between them.
Ultimately, the Retreat?s architecture and design harmonize with the otherworldly volcanic surroundings, erasing the boundary between man and nature. The result is a destination where the seamless interplay of lava, moss, and water is woven into every facet of the guest journey.
