Geneva studio Clavienrossier created this home in the Swiss Alps by adding two tinted
concrete volumes atop the remains of a stone house and adjacent barn.
The project is located in Charrat in the Valais canton of Switzerland and involved demolishing much of the existing structure while retaining the original cellars and floors.
The two concrete additions have faceted walls, angled inwards towards an opening in each side.
Rooms in the new upper storeys are connected, with circulation around the edge of each volume.
Photographs are by Roger Frei.
Here are some more details from the architects:
Situated away from the village, this house included an adjacent barn and had a too vast volume to be renewed in its totality.
