  • Check in, chill out! Stunning igloo hotel opens with private pools, mountain saunas and candle-lit suites ... but no running water<br />
<br />
Every winter, this hotel is carved out of the surrounding snow, with igloo rooms, romantic suites and even an outdoor whirlpool for the bravest guests.<br />
<br />
Iglu-Dorf hotel is rebuilt every season from 3,000 tons of snow at six locations from the Alps to the Pyrenees.<br />
<br />
The Swiss igloos, constructed in the Bernese Oberland and surrounded by 9,000ft mountain peaks, comes with artworks carved into the walls by artists from around the world, candle-lit suites for romantic guests and even saunas among the mountains.<br />
Open from Christmas Day to April, each villages sleeps up to 38 guests, cocooning them in cosy sleeping bags on thick sheepskin rugs, designed to withstand temperatures of minus 40C.<br />
<br />
And in the morning, there’s an enormous buffet of croissants, cooked meats, pastries, cereals, cheese and coffee.<br />
<br />
The cost for one in a standard Iglu-Dorf igloo is 99euros (£68) from Monday to Thursday and 115 euros from Friday to Sunday.<br />
<br />
A tour around the Gstaad site shows the great diversity of works in rooms and common areas of the unique accommodation from traditional Inuit works to artists from Switzerland and much further abroad.  <br />
<br />
Artists armed with no more than an ice pick, motorised saw and shovel, produce life-like animals such as seals, arctic wolves, polar bears and whales, eye-catching designs and patterns, or even super heroes. <br />
<br />
It's an elaborate and classy scene compared to the basic igloo Gunter first constructed with friends on a mountain in a bid to be first on the slopes in the morning.  <br />
<br />
The company says 99 per cent of their guests stay one night only. <br />
<br />
'We don't generally recommend [more than one night] as we neither have running water, nor showers,' the company says.  <br />
<br />
Each village caters for 38 guests a night, all of who bed down on a thick sheepskin rug in cosy sleeping bags equipped for minus-40 degrees celsius. <br />

  • That's one cool hobby! Man spends five days building an igloo from hundreds of frozen milk cartons<br />
<br />
A man has found an ingenious way to pass the long winter hours of sub-zero temperatures in Canada - by building this impressive igloo. <br />
The shelter was built by Daniel Gray, who is from New Zealand, while he visited his girlfriend Kathleen Starrie in Canada. <br />
The project began back in October when Miss Starrie began collecting hundreds of milk cartons at her home in Edmonton, washing and filling them with colored water. <br />
The idea was dreamed up by Miss Starrie's mother Brigid Burton to keep her daughter's boyfriend occupied during his five-week trip. <br />
The cartons were then frozen to turn them into 'bricks'. Mr Gray used snow and water to pack around 500 together in a spherical shape with the help of his girlfriend, her parents and a neighbor.<br />
<br />
In all, the igloo took five days to build in the backyard of Miss Starrie's parents' home and around 150 hours of labor.<br />
While the careful construction took place, the temperature often dropped to minus 25F but Mr Gray said that he could not give up.<br />
<br />
<br />
Mr Gray told the Global Edmonton: 'I thought we'd just take the bricks of ice and just kind of, almost throw them out there and make an igloo. (It was) a lot more difficult, truly.'<br />
The igloo is the traditional hunting home of the Inuit, an aboriginal tribe who live across the inhospitable Arctic region. <br />
Igloos have recently become a quirky feature of boutique hotels. The Iglu-Dorf is one of seven igloo villages across the Swiss Alps where guests pay up to $299 for a night's stay - and have access to restaurants, ice bars and hot tubs.<br />
The igloos are rebuilt every season in resorts in Andorra, Switzerland and Austria - including St Moritz, Gstaad and Davos-Klosters.<br />

Igloos have recently become a quirky feature of boutique hotels. The Iglu-Dorf is one of seven igloo villages across the Swiss Alps where guests pay up to $299 for a night's stay - and have access to restaurants, ice bars and hot tubs.<br />
The igloos are rebuilt every season in resorts in Andorra, Switzerland and Austria - including St Moritz, Gstaad and Davos-Klosters.<br />

  • That's one cool hobby! Man spends five days building an igloo from hundreds of frozen milk cartons<br />
<br />
A man has found an ingenious way to pass the long winter hours of sub-zero temperatures in Canada - by building this impressive igloo. <br />
The shelter was built by Daniel Gray, who is from New Zealand, while he visited his girlfriend Kathleen Starrie in Canada. <br />
The project began back in October when Miss Starrie began collecting hundreds of milk cartons at her home in Edmonton, washing and filling them with colored water. <br />
The idea was dreamed up by Miss Starrie's mother Brigid Burton to keep her daughter's boyfriend occupied during his five-week trip. <br />
The cartons were then frozen to turn them into 'bricks'. Mr Gray used snow and water to pack around 500 together in a spherical shape with the help of his girlfriend, her parents and a neighbor.<br />
<br />
In all, the igloo took five days to build in the backyard of Miss Starrie's parents' home and around 150 hours of labor.<br />
While the careful construction took place, the temperature often dropped to minus 25F but Mr Gray said that he could not give up.<br />
<br />
<br />
Mr Gray told the Global Edmonton: 'I thought we'd just take the bricks of ice and just kind of, almost throw them out there and make an igloo. (It was) a lot more difficult, truly.'<br />

INSIDE THE KITSCH ROOMS OF A SEX HOTEL IN COLOMBIA<br />
<br />
When Mexico City-based photographer Kurt Hollander arrived in Cali, Colombia, he made a beeline for the elusive Motel Kiss Me, a 180-room chateau for lovers. He lived for two weeks in a resident suite, with free reign to wander the halls, where behind closed doors, couples engaged in sex acts of all sorts against the backdrop of a themed installation of their choosing.<br />
<br />
<br />
Each of the rooms, explains the photographer, is unique, modeled according to a specific motif. Some are based on faraway countries, including India, China, ancient Egypt, and Nazi Germany; others are follow a more general concept, like an arctic igloo or aquatic underworld. The motel is decorated by local painters and sculptors, outfitted with several pornographic television channels and a comprehensive sex shop.<br />
<br />
While prostitution is legal in the area, Hollander stresses that Motel Kiss Me is more for the everyday couple looking for a glamorous getaway. The kitschy decor offers a rare chance to escape from the pressures of family life, and for some, it satisfies the fantasy of vacationing to an otherwise inaccessible kingdom<br />
Some of the layouts border on the absurd and disturbing—there’s even a chamber modeled after New York City, complete with a nightmarish explosion of the Twin Towers—but ultimately Hollander choses not to judge. Hotel Kiss Me encourages not only “safe sex,” but also, he suggests, “good sex,” available at an affordable price to people of all races, genders, and sexual orientations.<br />
<br />
For The Architecture of Sex, Hollander asked several local women to sit for him in a room of their choosing. They come from diverse backgrounds—one is an actress, one a crossdresser, another a rugby player—but all were instructed to act as though they were in the motel with a lover.
