Perched on the heights of the Alsatian village of Breitenbach, the landscape hotel 48° Nord reinterprets the traditional Scandinavian hytte, a place of retreat and reconnection with wild nature.
Reiulf Ramstad Arkitekter has built an eco-hotel in a French mountain village, made up of 14 cabins that dot the hillside like boulders on a slope .
48°Nord is a landscape hotel located in Breitenbach, a hamlet situated between the Vosges and Alsace regions in the northeast of France.
The hotel s cabins are based on Norwegian hyttes
The design blends the ecological ambitions of the area with the Scandinavian sensibilities of its Franco-Danish owner, Emil Leroy-Jönsson, and its Norwegian architect, Reiulf Ramstad, who teamed up local studio ASP Architecture.
The 14 cabins where the hotel s guests stay are based on hyttes , a specific type of small countryside cottage that Norwegians typically use for weekend getaways.
