Nordic design, Middle Eastern culture meet at LivNordic’s two-storey Katara Beach Club
LivNordic’s Katara Beach Club in Doha, Qatar, is set to open at the beginning of October. Located at the Torch Hotel, the two-storey, 4,600sq m (49,514sq ft) club is described as “a unique fusion between Middle Eastern hospitality, Nordic design and treatment heritage, and innovative fitness facilities.”
It will include separate male and female floors with gender-separated entrances, an Aurora Borealis light fixture in the relaxation lounges, Nordic bathing rituals, imported handcrafted products from Sweden, the first snow grottos in Qatar, an extensive gym with functional fitness zones, indoor and outdoor infinity pools and a private beach.
Katara Beach Club has been designed by StudioHBA, Dubai, who in conjunction with the Raison d’Etre team chose materials to reflect the Nordic countries. Copper, natural timbers, black slate and natural green walls were selected to highlight the Nordic love for nature and to bring a vision of the Nordic landscape with guests.
“Katara Beach Club is no ordinary club, we are wellness at its best – a stunning Nordic wellness gem seated in the heart of the emerging sports capital of the world,” said Richard Grew, general manager of the Katara Beach Club by LivNordic Spa & Wellness.
“Open to members as well as day guests to the club, guests will experience just how simple wellness can be."
