During the winter, the snow contrasts against the warm hues of the wood. In the warmer seasons, the timber complements the green grass.

The idea of building the homes out of wood came from his wife’s long-time, sensory-rich vision of a timber home. Zumthor also welcome guests to stay in his vacation homes all year round.
