Forum Appenzellerhaus: Tour of Haus am Hang

Architect Christoph Giger and the owners show us around the house on the steep south-facing slope with a view of the village.

The heated living space was reduced to a compact volume in wood, which rests on an unheated, stone base. This base adapts to the extreme topography, serves as a spatial prelude to the house and forms a staircase cut into the rock, via which the residents reach their individual apartments.
