MOUNTAIN COTTAGE

Design of a mountain cottage with wood and steel structure, external cladding in local materials, high performance walls insulating material and off grid appliances.

The project was born from the idea to get wide views of the beautiful mountain’s landscape.
That’s why the bedrooms are lifted and higher than the living area.
Besides, the division between the sleeping area and bathroom on one side and the living area on the other, which includes a relaxation area with a bookcase, aims to create a welcoming and familiar interior environment, with warm materials and colors that open up to exceptional views of the surrounding landscape.
That's why large windows thermally insulated guarantee perfect protection in cold winter days and summer direct solar exposition. A combined heat and power system (CHP) and a set of solar panels on the roof allow an excellent energetic efficency.
The structure is provided with steel beams for the skeleton and self-supporting wood panels for the outer shell. Local materials are used fo the external cladding and the interior walls finish.

IMPORTANT NOTE: why this price?
Because it reflects the hours spent studying, researching, designing, rendering, and translating into images the main concept and mood in terms of the emotional perception of this project.
It is not a quick job, but one that requires many hours of commitment and effort.
All this to ensure that the building is first and foremost feasible, even from a technical point of view, and that it can meet the needs and tastes of those who purchase it.
The client's psychological and physical well-being (perception of the atmosphere, materials, spaces, light, the feeling of warmth and welcome both outside and inside, the degree of happiness, satisfaction, and personal fulfillment when observing the whole) is fundamental to the success of any architectural project.
