Bee Breeders Competitions lancia, in collaborazione con SRED Global, il concorso di architettura Blue Clay Country Spa che sta richiamando gli appassionati di architettura per presentare idee relative ad un centro benessere rurale e a una guest house nella campagna lettone.
Il Blue Clay Country Spa utilizzerà un prodotto naturale locale ricco di minerali per i trattamenti di bellezza e di benessere offerti dal centro. I progetti dovranno concentrarsi sull'ecocompatibilità e sulla sostenibilità economica in un luogo in cui gli ospiti potranno godere appieno della bellezza del paesaggio naturale.
Le iscrizioni saranno aperte fino al 25 gennaio 2017, mentre i vincitori saranno proclamati l'8 marzo 2017.
The Blue Clay Country Spa architecture competition, in partnership with SRED Global real estate developers, is tasking participants with presenting designs for a countryside guest house that would specialise in providing health treatments using this unique and naturally occurring organic product.
Blue clay has long been used in restorative treatments, and provides health and beauty benefits in its naturally occurring form. Blue clay has an exceptionally high mineral content and been used for centuries for medicinal purposes. The research is still being carried out to this day to further understand the clay's antibacterial properties.
The Blue Clay Country Spa will be located in Latvia, a small European country in the Baltic region situated between Lithuania and Estonia, in an area that has a rich source of the blue clay. The Blue Clay Country Spa architecture competition will help to further promote ecotourism which is already very popular in Latvia. The country spa will allow guests to experience some of the country's most beautiful landscapes and live and interact with nature, all while being pampered with beauty treatments from all natural products.
For the Blue Clay Country Spa architecture competition, participants are asked to create designs for a guest house complex that is capable of providing overnight accommodation for one family. The guest house would also need to include treatment rooms, accommodation for the staff, and other ecotourism elements such as a small farm to house local animals.
The winning designs will be considered for construction, and should focus on eco-friendly and cost-effective building techniques that will set a positive example of green building practice, and further popularise ecotourism in Latvia.
