The New Refuge Gervasutti is Designed for Helicopter Operators
If you ever get the opportunity to visit the New Refuge Gervasutti, you can tell people you were literally hanging off the side of a mountain. This one-of-a-kind habitat rests atop of Mt. Blanc and protrudes a great portion of its structure over a beautiful snow-covered cliff. Dangerous? Not likely as its architects, the Italian company LEAPfactory, specializes in crafting modular dwellings for extreme locations.
Observant readers will notice that a series of solar panels sits atop the New Refuge Gervasutti. Though it looks like a fat cigarette on the outside, the interior of the New Refuge Gervasutti is actually quite impressive with electronic furnishings, beds, kitchen tables, drawers and a washroom. To reach this tubular habitat, you’ll need access to a helicopter.
