Mayen à Pierre | Ski Chalet in La Forclaz VS
1 Bedroom Ski Chalet in Evolene, La Forclaz VS
ED Refnr. 2081870
A hay barn that was no longer held together by more than a few shreds of wood has become a place to live and rest, while retaining the building's identity. The base was rebuilt in concrete and an underground extension was added, making it possible to comfortably increase the volume available. Above all, this new space made it possible to incorporate the domestic areas - kitchen, bathroom, etc. - with a huge icing on the cake: an all-glass opening as if carved directly from the mountain pasture. Aesthetically speaking, it can even be seen as a reinterpretation of the cow trough, which here feeds the basement with daylight. The interior almost gives the impression of being in an art gallery, with the work, for once, hanging outside.
The guiding principle behind the transformation was respect for the building's heritage. The whole of the stable barn has been kept in its original state. The base has been completely rebuilt, but the part that emerges from the ground is perfectly identical to the old stable. Here the architect is not trying to create something new, but to work with what already exists. Windows set into the back of the timbers, lighting that makes the old stable barn vibrate. The use of sandblasted concrete created a very mineral atmosphere inside the new underground volume. The flat concrete floors create a very special atmosphere in this building nestling at 1700 m.
