Concrete on the outside, stunningly comfortable on the inside: architect Gion Caminada shows what a hotel in the mountains can be like today with the Maistra 160 in Pontresina. Irritation welcome.
It’s sometimes the same with buildings as it is with people: someone who appears beautiful at first glance can turn out to be a bit boring and even unpleasant after a while. Conversely, slightly more idiosyncratic physiognomies often turn out to be more interesting, profound and, in their own way, more beautiful in the long run.
