One of the most crucial architectural elements is the window. Humans inevitably need ventilation and natural light to feel good and content. Windows satisfy that craving by relating outside and inside space. These, however, were chosen for their unique qualities and/or placing.
The Gloriette Guesthouse for its arched windows – inspired by local architecture – that allow guests to comfortably have a very intimate proximity with Oberbozen’s landscape.
The Alpine Spa at Bürgenstock Resort Lake Lucerne for its sharp clean exemplification of an invisible window. This frameless and limitless glass “box” places visitors into the spectacular landscape, transforming the experience into an exhibition of nature.
The Ottilia Hotel for its unique rounded chaise longue window that not only adds a whole new modern aspect to the industrial building’s façade but also allows guests to sit on the window as such.
The Shipwreck Lodge for its one-of-a-kind geometric design that dialogues with the landscape and Namibia’s enigmatic findings at Skeleton Coast.
The dining room at The Connaught for its reinvention of a typical English window by brightening up the historic dark oak aesthetic.
