The Project

At the top of Varden, where the ski trails meet the horizon towards Rondane, lies a plot of over one thousand square metres. West-facing, completely private, with views stretching from Fåvang to the mountain peaks beyond.

The Story

Some plots wait for a cabin. This one has already found its own.

For over two years, MARK Architects in Stavanger have worked on the question of what should stand here. The answer was not a standard cabin. It became a mountain estate of 354 square metres, designed as three interconnected volumes in driftwood timber, slate and moss-green standing seam metal. With a wellness floor in the lower level that brings the Aspen tradition to Gudbrandsdalen.

Architecture

Three volumes. Driftwood, slate and moss-green metal.

The exterior is built on three elements: driftwood-grey timber framing with rustic X-motifs, natural stone from local quarries, and a moss-green standing seam metal roof that ages with the landscape.

The Feeling

Every season. The same calm.

The driftwood timber greys with the snow. The natural stone warms in the spring sun. The moss-green roof disappears into the birch canopy in summer. The building is designed to belong here.
