Mountains – HOLIDAYARCHITECTURE

la stalla

Design history in Ticino: in 1976, Otto e Associati, the architect collective Otto in Lugano transformed the 130-year-old stable into a simple residential house that still stands out today for its open, functional architecture and select furnishings.

unser vorsaess geisskopf

Unser Vorsäß – Geißkopf

Honour the old, welcome the new: built in 1807 in the midst of lush mountain meadows between the valley and the alpine pastures, the Vorsäßhütte, which was in need of renovation, was rebuilt according to the old model.

umgebinde 1657

A testimony to Saxon history made of sandstone and half-timbering: situated on a sunny slope in Saxon Switzerland, just a few metres from the Elbe, this cultural gem offers its visitors two holiday apartments to discover the impressive Elbe Sandstone Mountains.

hotel des horlogers

Hôtel des Horlogers

Trees growing from the ceiling, rock-like light fixtures, sloping walls and deliberate bumps in the floor. Located in the heart of the Vallée de Joux, the Hôtel des Horlogers is anything but ordinary. Like a linear snail shell, it winds its way into the pristine landscape of the Swiss Jura.

cedä m

The Cedä M in the heart of the small mountain village of Dosoledo on the edge of the Dolomites tells the story of this memorable place in each of its five holiday rooms. Built in 1807 and shaped by the life of the farmers in the secluded Comelico Valley, the house is a historical gem in every way.

peterhof

The Peterhof in Vorarlberg has always been a place of community. A home. With a long history and lots of memories. With its modern chalets, the old-established alpine inn on the Alpe Furx has been adding a new chapter with a formal link to contemporary zeitgeist.

Located at 1,395 metres, far away from the hustle and bustle. Once you have reached the top, you embark on a gentle journey into times gone by: For more than 100 years an old farmhouse with a barn has stood here, and its story continues to be told.

anders

A house that seems to be in motion, lying flat like the horizon at an altitude of 1850 metres and giving its structure free rein. Lightness abounds here in the midst of the impressive South Tyrolean mountains, thanks to the clarity and reduction of form.

panoramahaus 1314

Panoramahaus 1314

On 1314 metres above sea level, the Panorama House 1314 rises out of the dark green coniferous forest high up on the mountain in St. Lorenzen, from where you can view all the highlights of the South Tyrolean landscape.

waldchalets bradnertal

Waldchalets Brandnertal

Far from the chalet cliché. Five minimalist cottages stand on the edge of the Brandner Valley forest. Hidden under the Vorarlberg treetops and with an open view of the mighty Rätikon mountains.
