Stone House Fronts – Rustic addition to Swiss mountains

This stone house front makes a great addition to the rocky mountain ranges of Switzerland. Swiss architects Markus Wespi and Jerome de Meuron transformed an existing house in Ticino Mergoscia in the Verzasca Valley, creating this stone home extension as a vantage point to take in the breathtaking view of mountains and valleys. The rocky exterior of this wedge-shaped volume is built right into the hillside slope, becoming a part of the mountain. The rocky front is a great contrast to the home’s modern, minimalist interiors. The clean, white palette doesn’t detract from the home’s amazing architectural features and, of course, the view. Markus Wespi and Jerome de Meuron
