\r\n\t\t\t\t\tJust like in my restaurant, where I prioritize regional ingredients, I also focus on local materials when building. Here, in the Styrian forest, we build with wood\u2014no compromises. That’s why Piz Bernina and Etna from the local company Mareiner were my first choice. Comfort factor included.\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t

The chalets, affectionately called ‘birdhouses,’ at the summit of the Pogusch Pass hold a special place in our story. Firstly, because there is nothing quite like them\u2014offering breathtaking views deep into the Mariazell region and across to the majestic Hochschwab. These chalets are total works of art, crafted from brushed larch, with our Piz Bernina wall panel playing its part in ensuring that ‘Woodpecker,’ ‘Bullfinch,’ ‘Cuckoo,’ and ‘Owl’\u2014the quartet of birdhouse chalets\u2014blend seamlessly into the forested landscape of Upper Styria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secondly, because in our quest for the perfect interior design, we became captivated by the idea of giving the traditionally two-dimensional wall panel a new dynamic by introducing a third dimension\u2014marking nothing less than the birth of our intricately interwoven Irregolare series. With its varying levels, structures, color combinations, and surfaces, each individual composition of planks creates unique depth effects, light and shadow plays. Every wall becomes a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\r\n\t\t\t\t\tFor many years, wood\u2014with its many qualities\u2014has shaped our projects. Fortunately, we found a partner in the Reitbauer family, who shares this passion with us and has collaborated on developing a unique tourism project.\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t
