London Icebar – where guests mingle and cuddles in minus five degrees year round – has got a new design. Icebar by Icehotel London at Regent Street is created together with the Swedish design company, Thoms & Nilsson, who turned blocks of ice into crystal bars and cool seats, during six intensive days. The bar is about 80 Sqm and is built of ice from the river Torne Älv and transported to London in cooling containers. On behalf of the Ice Hotel in Jukkasjärvi and Below Zero Thoms & Nilsson, both designed and built a bar that is definitely London's coolest bar right now.
Icebar by Icehotel London is to visit on 31-33 Heddon Street and will be open until September 2012. Then the design is changed to create next year's theme and decor.
Here's a Youtube clip that shows how the bar was made: http://youtu.be/_ztN0c369Ro
