House Vorderer Sonnberg Kirchberg

PROJECT

Good things take time

Over three years this chalet in Kirchberg was developed with empathy and consistency. The result is convincing: the interior design combines traditional references to the materiality of the surrounding countryside with contemporary flair; doors and furniture made of black pine accentuate and divide the rooms. Folded spruce, oak, waxed steel, Valser granite and textiles - mainly loden, linen and deerskin - were used.

The finely tuned material mix gives the chalet its unique character in connection with straight, modern forms and unusual surfaces.

DURATION	July 2012 - June 2014
SERVICE	Concept, execution, construction support

Sometimes it takes years for the treasures from Bernd Gruber's studio to find the perfect sphere of action.

Architecture and art in fascinating combination.

Modern forms meet tradition, as here in the chalet's living room.

Noble materials create an elegant and warm atmosphere in the wellness area.

STORY

With a pronounced understanding of architecture and style, even unexpressed wishes are implemented

Bernd Gruber not only brings inspiration from his travels, but often also sculptures and objects - fascinating unique pieces with history. Without haste and with great sensitivity, these are integrated into properties and once again make it a unique space with personality. In this case they come from Bali or Paris. For example, an old castle door has found its new purpose as a bar cupboard in the wine cellar.

Steps made of antique spruce wood as a detail full of character.

Expressive purpose-alteration: A lock door becomes a bar cupboard.

Like good wine, this chalet needed time to become perfect.

Relict from the past: The client had this door, several hundred years old, brought from his former domicile.
