apartment house / mountainside / alpine architecture / avalanche safety construction/ compact and functional units / hard shell with soft core / wooden construction

In collaboration with C&P Immobilien

In the highest mountain village in Styria, located in the Enns Valley, an extraordinary apartment building rises, combining modern architecture and traditional alpine design. Nestled in a picturesque alpine meadow and surrounded by a stunning mountain backdrop, the building stands at the edge of the avalanche protection zone. This challenging location has significantly influenced the architecture and construction of the project. A particularly striking feature of the building is the sheet metal loop that transitions into a terrace on the west side. This shell correlates with the surrounding landscape and gives the building a harmonious integration with its natural environment. The loop and the tilted form of the volume folds protectively around the house's wooden core, enhancing the defensive character of the dwelling. The protective character is further emphasized by the sloping walls, which are perceptible and experiential both from the outside and inside. The building resembles a shelter that shields the cozy and warm interior from wind and weather. The entire construction of the apartment building is made of cross-laminated timber from local spruce, making the structure not only aesthetically pleasing but also environmentally sustainable. The house accommodates seven compact and functional living units designed for self-sufficient use, with the largest spanning three levels. The units provide everything needed for autonomous living in the mountains, such as a fully equipped kitchen that opens into the living room, three bedrooms, bathrooms, and saunas. Inside, the load-bearing wooden structure remains visible, significantly contributing to the warm atmosphere reminiscent of a traditional alpine hut, complemented by contemporary furniture. This innovative housing concept represents a successful fusion of modern design and traditional construction, creating a harmonious retreat amidst the Central Eastern Alps.
