We are exited to announce that our project for The Breitenbach Landscape Hotel 48°Nord recently won two 1st prizes in the Grand Prix Du Design Awards in the categories Building Facade and Hotel & Tourist Complex.
“Breitenbach Landscape Hotel proposes a holistic experience in Alsace, inspired by Scandinavian practices and building on the region’s culinary, wellness and nature opportunities. A distinct architectural expression is inserted in the picturesque natural landscape of the Vosges Mountains. Heirs to the Norwegian “hytte”, 14 cabins dot the hillside like boulders on a slope, balancing privacy and outlook. Locally-sourced, untreated wood clads all volumes, combining only with large glass openings. […] Interiors are minimal and rustic, qualified by the light-coloured wood, snug built-in furniture, framed views and spatial contrasts—perfectly embodying the Nordic concept of “hygge”- INT. Design
