On the edge of Parcines in South Tyrol, against a backdrop of vine-covered slopes and dramatic mountain peaks, stands the Klein Fein Hotel Anderlahn. Based on an architectural competition, a stylish and modern extension to the main house was designed, which can be operated independently or in symbiosis with the latter .
The project is divided into two construction phases. In the first phase, the underground car park and the ground floor were completed. In a second phase, the upper floors with luxurious holiday flats will follow. The ground floor and the upper floors contrast not only in their choice of materials but also in their form. The clear and straight lines of the wellness area and the porphyry cladding symbolise permanence and tranquillity. The curved shapes on the upper floors and the use of wood stand for lightness and relaxation.
Recreation in close contact with nature is a central aspect of the design. The building was arranged in the south of the plot and frames a central oasis of well- being. The infinity pool with salt water is enveloped by a natural pond which provides strength and calm, while targeted planting brings the surrounding nature directly into the wellness area. Visual connections from the interior establish a constant relationship with the landscape. The use of local materials makes nature an integral part of the design. Earthy colors and atmospheric light spots create a comforting atmosphere.
