Holding over 100 people and with its own bar, the beautifully designed, glassfronted Agora Sauna looks out onto the Arctic Sea, offering extraordinary views of the mountainous seascape.
The Norwegian musician Biosphere has also created a specially commissioned, ambient soundtrack called Polar Low, which is installed in the Sauna. Biosphere is well known for his ambient techno and arctic ambient styles, use of music loops and striking sound-sampling from sci-fi sources. The amphi-theatre style seating of the Agora Sauna space is also used for a programme of events including talks and performances.
