Article source: Studio Simonetti Grand Hotel Courmayeur Mont Blanc arises from a clear project idea: to integrate a contemporary architecture in a charming and suggestive landscape respecting the traditions and materials of the location. 4 chalets, each one covered by a pitched roof with sheets and local materials as wood and stone for the facades that well combine with the glass windows of the main chalet. The north side looks onto Mont Blanc and Breva glacier and the south one onto the forest and Courmayeur.  Image Courtesy © Diego De Pol

The warmth and peace expressed by those materials well balance with the landscape, which demands respect and sobriety, and well invite guests to listen to nature.

The guest on his arrival can perceive the building volume looking up thanks to the triple height area at the hall entrance. Restaurant, American bar and reception dialogue through this vertical space defined by a wood stair. A lively area at every hour: in the morning for a breakfast in the veranda, at lunch in the American bar on the first floor where guests can relax with a drink after the dinner at the restaurant on the third floor. A warm and cocoon-like environment in front of the white mountain.  Image Courtesy © Diego De Pol  Image Courtesy © Diego De Pol
