  • Beskrivelse

    A striking survey of contemporary houses designed for high-altitudes that fuse style with comfort in extreme weather conditions

    High up in mountains around the world, houses that have long been constructed following local building traditions are being transformed. Intrepid young architects using new technologies and materials are refashioning these traditions, with results that range fromgemütlich (cozy) retreats to glamorous hilltop villas.

    Houses are presented in three sections: Cabin, Chalet, and Villa. Photographs of each house reveal its architecture, interior design, and striking setting, while plans provide an additional layer of information. Texts tell the story of how the dwelling was sited to make the most of its location, how new construction innovations were introduced, and how these solutions provide a comfortable space from which families can enjoy the great outdoors. While our cities become ever more concentrated, there is an increasing desire to experience nature as directly as possible. From the Highlands of Scotland to the breathtaking summits of the Alps and the adrenaline-fuelled mountain resorts of California, Mountain Modern is a journey to the most stunning homes of our planet. 415 photographs, 393 in color

David A. Garcia

This publication emerges from ‘Architecture and Extreme Environments’, a master’s programme at the Royal Danish Academy that aims to generate a positive impact on the issues our world faces today. Through a site-specific approach, the programme responds to present and future global challenges through research by design, fine-tuned and site-specific strategies, and active fieldwork in remote locations around the world. The book compiles fieldwork investigations, personal and student work, reflective, methodical and personal essays and finally a summary of the MAP Publication issues to date. A selection of these MAP publications will also be reissued and independently available alongside the book.
