Nestled into the green hillsides of the Churfirsten mountain range is this wooden masterpiece of a house designed by kM Architektur. Built to look like a giant modern sauna, the house is wrapped by mountains, greenery and the clear blue waters of the Walensee which rises more than 2 km above sea level. The use of floor-to-ceiling sliding doors and glass railings allows you to soak up all of this pristine nature while either inside the open concept living space, or sipping gluhwein on one of the many verandahs. No wonder this setting inspired Franz List’s “Au lac de Wallenstadt” during his solo travels to the area in the 1800’s.
Having worked with luxury brands and retailers such as Chloé, Prada, Armani, Holt Renfrew, and the Hudson Bay Company, Marika Brose launched her eponymous collection, BROSE, in 2009, creating glam dresses for globe-trotting gals. Endorsed by the media and celebrities alike — such as Vogue, ELLE, People, Nylon, Marie Claire, Flare, The Bachelor, Tatler, America’s Got Talent, MTV, Lucky, Life & Style, America’s Top Model, Much Music, Hello!
