Pointy Mountain Treehouses

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Peter Pichler Architecture's Design Entertains Modern Sensibilities

— March 8, 2019 — Art & Design
After completing the ultra-elegant Hotel Schgaguler, Peter Pichler Architecture takes another stab at the area of the Dolomites with a series of pointy mountain treehouses. Located in Northern Italy, the structures strongly subscribe to contemporary movements of design and they seamlessly tie into the forest thanks to their compact shape, their peak-like roof that references evergreen trees, as well as their subdued color palette — the mountain treehouses are clad in blackened wood.

The Milan-based studio makes its designs quite compact, satisfying only the necessities of living. The structure will prove to offer a secluded and luxurious getaway, where the relationship between humans and nature takes the spotlight. Peter Pichler Architecture's mountain treehouses are great examples of "a 'slow down' form of tourism."
Trend Themes
1. Contemporary Mountain Architecture - Designing compact, peak-like structures that seamlessly blend with nature, offering minimalist and luxurious getaways.
2. Forest-inspired Design - Creating structures with peak-like roofs and subdued color palettes inspired by evergreen trees, blending architecture with the natural surroundings.
3. Slow Down Tourism - Catering to a niche market by providing secluded and serene mountain treehouses that encourage relaxation and a close connection with nature.
Industry Implications
1. Hospitality - Creating unique and immersive accommodation experiences in scenic locations, attracting guests seeking a luxury escape.
2. Architecture - Pushing boundaries in design by creating compact and sustainable structures that harmonize with nature.
3. Tourism - Catering to travelers who seek an off-grid, eco-friendly vacation experience in natural, remote settings.
