Villa Vals, Switzerland – SeARCH

Villa Vals, Switzerland – SeARCH

2009

Surprised that it was permissible to construct a pair of dwellings so close to the world famous thermal baths of Vals, the client seized the opportunity to develop the site, without disturbing the bath’s expansive views. The introduction of a central patio into the steep incline creates a large façade with considerable potential for window openings. The viewing angle from the building is slightly inclined, giving an even more dramatic view of the strikingly beautiful mountains on the opposite side of the narrow valley.

Villa in Vals – Switzerland
by SeARCH and CMA (design Bjarne Mastenbroek & Christian Muller).
