Nature and landscape visually creep into the building through the transitive atrium and triangular openings, whilepresenting natural daylight and providing a dynamic sport hall for climbers, from training to competition.

Bouldering hall, temporary accommodation zone, fitness gyms and maintenance areas are enclosed by boulder–like walls.

In harmony with the dominant color of the surroundings, white fiber cement panels are considered for the facets to settle down the whole building in its snowy context. Steel moment resisting framesare used as the main structural system; while tubular trusses transmit the floor loads to vertical elements due to project long spans.
