AW² designed Surprada to frame the beautiful views of the Flims valley and surrounding mountainous environment in Grisons, Switzerland. The 750sqm-concept involves harnessing the traditional chalet architecture and redesigning it with a contemporary twist.
In this way, the building has a unique presence with its metallic envelope which joins with the more traditional wooden balconies with their large openings. The building’s imprint on a sloping site has been structured around maximising the views and the creation of comfortable, open plan apartments on the inside, complemented by a unique duplex apartment to the south of the site.
