Halwina Hideaway: Embracing Tradition with a Modern Twist

Halwina Hideaway is a wooden mountain hotel located in Vorarlberg, Austria, designed with modern elegance by Baumeister Jürgen Haller in 2021.

Nestled in a clearing surrounded by vast forests and mountains, Halwina was built with great sensitivity and according to old craftsmanship. Its traditional gable roof volume is intended to continue the proportions of the typical building form of the area, while its cladding and window openings break up its facade and make it more interesting.

The interior is a combination of classic Bregenzerwald architecture and modern touches, creating a cozy atmosphere for visitors.
