Constructing the Olperer House in the Zillertal Alps
The architects deliberately opted for a Spartan concept for this new shelter, regarding it as an appropriate response to the unique, exposed location in the Zillertal Alps. It was also of advantage in view of having to execute the work at a height of 2,400 m above sea level.
The two-storey timber building, designed to provide simple accommodation for hikers and mountaineers, is a low-tech structure that has been reduced to basics.
