The Mountain Lodge type is a one and a half story high manson. The designs commemorate two types: The traditional swiss chalet and the american 1970's modernistic lodge. Both designs aim to merge the regional architectural languages with modern international manson style

The two Mountain Lodge types have the same floor plans, but differ in material and appearance: The "swiss chalet" is designed in a traditional, wooden typology with large projecting roofs but modern large glazed facade. The "american lodge" is constructed in concrete with stone cladding in the basement and white painted wooden upper parts.
Both types feature the same floor plan with living and dining room at the ground floor, opening to the garden, and bed rooms in the upper floor. The basement is occupied by a wellness area with pool, stretching out to the garden
