The former restaurant "Vallazza" was demolished and rebuilt as the new staff residence "Vallazza", a residential building for FORESTIS employees.
»The employees are the spearhead of the company.«
The basic idea for the design of the building was the spearhead, from which the gable roof and the pointed shape of the building were derived. Coming from the valley, this characterizes the appearance of the building. In the basement, a stone wall extends along the street. Through its simplicity and straightness, the building fits into the existing terrain and integrates harmoniously into the landscape.
In this way we managed to create an interaction between architecture and nature, a symbiosis between human activities and the environment.

Bio
ASAGGIO. The two architects met during their joint studies in Innsbruck and Florence. In 2012 they founded the architecture studio ASAGGIO, acronym of the two names and literal expression of their philosophy, embodied by an aesthetic-architectural concept as contemporary as it is shrewd. A mutual inspiration which, through the many projects carried out together, has evolved into a common path called ASAGGIO.
