The entire building has a floor space of 600m squared, and on the upper level floor there is a conference room with both sanitary and service rooms. The lower floor has a living room, bedrooms, washrooms and a kitchen. This conference and seminar house can hold up to 30 people comfortably, and it is the perfect spot for a luxurious getaway office seminar. The facade of the building is made from tinted glass, and it uses a combination of artificial and natural lighting. The combination of the breathtaking views of the Dolomite mountain and the beautiful crystal-like building make this building hard to match. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Mountain-based Conference Spaces:** Opportunities exist for architects to design eco-friendly conferencing spaces that embrace the natural charm of mountainous regions - **Luxury Residential Conference Centers:** There is a desire for conferencing spaces that combine luxury living with modern conference facilities - **Desirable Blend of Natural and Artificial Light:** Innovators should develop ways to incorporate both artificial and natural lighting in the building design and layout ### Sectors Adopting This - **Hospitality and Tourism:** Hotels and resorts in mountainous regions may benefit from incorporating luxury residential conference centers - **Architecture and Design:** Architectural firms can explore new ways to integrate the surrounding natural landscape in the building design, thereby creating a more immersive experience - **Lighting and Technology:** Innovators and lighting experts can create solutions to achieve optimal lighting balance in conference rooms and living spaces ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nature-Rooted Family Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haus-am-lagnesberg.md) - [Reflective Mountain-Based Shelters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shelter-santerpass.md) - [Cantilevered Mountain Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brutal-honesty.md) - [Modern Mountainous Luxury Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robert-chisholm-architects.md) - [Glass-Lined Corridor Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tranquil-abiding.md) - [Mountain Courtyard Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ski-house.md) - [Stepped Hillside Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b2a-architects.md) - [Serene Heartwarming Villa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/villa-minimale.md) - [Ski Resort Crystalline Skyscrapers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trojena-ski-resort.md)
