DESIGN NAME: The Eagle
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Mountain Top Restaurant
INSPIRATION: The main inspiration for the design was drawn from its surrounding landscape. We tried to creat a rock-shaped building to blend with its context. Hence the shape of the building and the facade covered with black glass. Considering the extremly tight time frame of 12 months from starting the design to completion, we chose CLT as the main structural material. A very detailed 3D Bim Model was built to colaborate quickly across disciplines. Interior comprises mainly of wood, stone and leather.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Mountain Top Restaurant within the Austrian Alps. Set amidst a breathtaking landscape with 360 degrees of panoramic views. The brief was to create a rock-like crystalline landmark. The two-way slanted CLT superstructure with its fully in timber and stone cladded interior, is on the outside covered by glass panels up to 6m high. Another highlight of the building is the “Eagle drive- in” at the lower part of the building, where skiers can pick up snacks without unstrapping their ski gear.
