About Villa Madonna 酒店擴建

Villa Madonna係位於意大利Alpe di Siusi嘅一座酒店擴建工程，於2021年落成。擴建部分嘅形態順應周圍地貌嘅線條，主立面朝向Sciliar山脈嘅山頂，將山峰景致框入視野。項目採用石材、玻璃同木材，全部均來自低二氧化碳排放嘅供應鏈，兼顧耐用性同高能源效益。擴建部分設有接待處、茶點區以及閱讀同交談空間。日光透過開口引入室內，同時保持外圍物料嘅連貫性。

Unique Properties: The morphology of the extension was determined by the purpose of identifying meaningful relationships with the natural context.This approach has allowed the adoption of an architecture that, while strongly differentiating stylistically and linguistically, manages to converse harmoniously with the more traditional character of the building to which it is juxtaposed.

Production Technology: The criteria that governed the choice of materials was to use technical materials that would ensure durability and high energy performance, which, however, would take up the logic of tradition in mountain buildings: stone, glass and wood.
All materials used come from a supply chain with low carbon dioxide production.
Design Challenge: The most complex part was to design a building envelope that would integrate with the pre-existing landscape and 'hotel, but at the same time could take on with new architectural significance.
Research: The design research was done by observing the surrounding area and bringing back into the architecture itself the lines that make up the surrounding landscape.
Light was used as a natural element of intersection and connection between interior and exterior, thus generating an architecture that could fit in and become a homogeneous part of the landscape.
Inspiration: The main inspiration was determined by the orientation toward the summit of the Sciliar mountain range. The axis identified in this way determines the alignment of the main façade of the intent space with the goal of capturing the view of the peak. From an architectural point of view, the intervention relates to the existing building by interpreting the basic compositional role using only technical materials that would, however, resume the logic of tradition in mountain buildings.
Project Duration: Built in 2021, Alpe di Siusi, Italy
Operation Flow: The new extension is integrated into the existing architectural context through a new re-functionalization of spaces.
The recepion, a refreshment area, and different reading-conversation rooms were included in this new shell.
Light and views of the outdoor space filter into the interior through physical discretizations of the infills without affecting the perception of their material continuity over the entire perimeter of the extension.
