The concepts of “Botanical Architecture” and “Small Size Architecture” have guided this tourist village project for the Longen winery, situated in the Moselle Valley.
In a short time and at low cost, thanks to the prefabricated wooden structure, little independent cottages with slate cladding have sprung up at the foot of the vineyards and right in the middle of an orchard.
Resembling the traditional refuges in the vineyards, the little house-rooms, complete with private bathrooms, offer direct contact with nature and invite guests to enjoy their garden by cultivating it themselves.
Simplicity is the motto of the interiors of the small guest houses at the Longen Winery. Inspired by the traditional refuges in the local vineyards, the houses, surrounded by individual orchards and gardens, feature archtypical lines which conceptually link to the essentiality of the interiors.
Here, the lightness of white colour and natural wood and the simple lines of all furnishings, stylistically taking up the local tradition, create a feelgood factor. The bathroom is hidden by a full-height wall shaped according to the front view of the house.
