Remarkables Ski Field Base Building

The building has been planned to handle large numbers of people quickly and efficiently. First time customers enter at the middle road level to be kitted out and then proceed up and out onto the snow.

Then when the tummy grumbles they return to the top level were they can snack and enjoy the view. The basement level discreetly deals with back of house functions. The building is like a dark brooding rock outcrop in a sea of snow. Up close it seems dynamic with its many diagonal lines. From a distance its shed like form is enhanced with  the triangular references in the structure and roof embellishments.
