在阿尔卑斯山脉卡其山顶，海拔1600米处的滑雪胜地中，建立起两栋高耸的公寓。这两栋公寓是在自然和传统与旅游经济博弈后产生的结果，在过程中追寻和谐，创新，生态以保证实现项目是合理的。高耸的公寓尽可能小的侵占土地，保持了滑雪胜地和周围绿境的完整。建筑没有复杂的基础设施和电力供水设施，而在附近的酒店为公寓提供必要的补给和服务。

EDEL:WEISS RESIDENCES, Katschberg, AUSTRIA
Vertical buildings in the Alps?

Built on the highest point of the Katschberg Alpline Pass, 1600 meters high, the two monolithic apartment-towers edel:weiss demonstrate an almost symbolic portal between the two provinces Salzburg and Kärnten and have been appointed to act as the new town’s landmark for today.

Balancing a respect for Nature and Tradition, as well as the interests of the tourism industry means balancing the essential requirements. Building in the Alps requires a constant search for stabilisation, a constant search for new solutions to build ecologically justifiable buildings.

For Katschberg, a traditional Austrian ski resort between Salzburg and Carinthia, Matteo Thun consciously created two vertical buildings – in order to avoid the ongoing urban sprawl of this traditional winter sports area. By preserving the surrounding green soil and by reducing the floor space to the minimum size a solution was found that is in line with the ambient environment.

两栋公寓呈圆柱型，被菱形网构的落叶松木构架包裹，这层构架是关联内外环境的一个介质，让建筑更为轻松的融入自然。建筑的直径约为20米，共有64间公寓，面积从45平米到180平米不等。相同的大方布局保证所有的公寓能看见不同的风景框景还有完全相同的风景全景。内部材料以天然材料为主，主要两种装饰风格：现代城市风格和高山传统经典风格。

This architectural concept avoided the complex facilities of infrastructures for electricity and water supplies, and no supplementary roads were needed to connect the two apartment towers to the nearby Hotel Cristallo, providing all necessary services to the residences.

By following the motto ‘kilometre 0’, wood, the main building material, once again stands up to the test. The two cylindrical structures are wrapped by a round bodied diamond rhombus structure made from local larch wood that symbolizes the direct association to the environment, fusing the inside and the exterior.

The two circular residential towers with different heights balance the given ground and measuring 20 meters in diameter, house 64 apartments varying from 45 to 180 square meters. Identical layouts with different scales allow all apartments spectacular panoramic views to the natural and unaltered landscape. By using mainly natural materials, the interiors of the different residences are designed with generous layouts; lines and forms are clear and light. Two different styles of décor provide the choose of a basic configuration: a modern, urban flavour or a more classic, traditional alpine option. The entire complex is heated by the nearby power station, delivering biomass energy.
