Entry Description

Perched on Grindelwald's slopes, this Building embodies Transparent Living, harmonizing with the alpine terrain to create a space both open and sheltered. Its triangular design captures natural light, blurring boundaries between indoors and out.

Concrete ensures strength and insulation, while expansive openings invite the landscape inside. The building offers a pure connection to nature, where living becomes transparent and mountain beauty defines everyday life.
