Perched high in the Swiss Alps, Valley Crest Residence blends raw concrete and expansive glass to embrace the breathtaking mountain clouds.
The design philosophy centers around shelter and expanse. The heavy monolithic concrete foundation anchors the residence to the craggy mountain slope, while large frameless glass panels open the living areas completely to the surrounding alpine panorama.
Sustainable geothermal heating is integrated directly into the concrete floors, maintaining comfort during freezing winter months. Natural local stone cladding bridges the gap between modern structural engineering and the organic beauty of the Swiss highlands.
