Project Description:
Set in the idyllic Berkshire Mountains of Western Massachusetts, Mepal Spa is an adaptive re-use of a decommissioned elementary school. It houses 6000-square feet of treatment rooms, steam rooms, an covered outdoor hot tub, yoga and Pilates studio, as well as a salon and multiple relaxation areas. Located a few hundred meters away from the renowned 18th century Mepal Manor, a 12-room luxury retreat, the spa’s modern vernacular offers a unique counterpoint to the colonial architecture of the Manor.
