Following the natural contours …

Designed for a family of four with anticipation of a fifth addition located near the Norwegian village of Geilo, a popular skiing destination in the valley Hallingdal.

Reiulf Ramstad Arkitekter designed the mountain cabin by reinterpreting the local architectural language and building techniques. The house consists of a main body, housing mostly bedrooms, which follow the natural contours of the landscape and splits into two living zones.

The extruded form of the structure frames the spectacular views from within the cabin, while strategically positioned smaller openings along its volume provides glimpses of the immediate surroundings. The elevated levels of the living and dining areas provide its occupants and minimalist approach to the finishes provided the calm that one needs with 5 children on holiday.
