Hafjell, Norway

Rooted in both tradition and innovation, Favn Klyngetun Hotel by Reiulf Ramstad Arkitekter is a hospitality project in Hafjell, that will be able to house about 1000 people and at the same time respect the Norwegian mountainous landscape.

The project will emerge as an exciting whole-year-around destination at Hafjell – a place for a multitude of activities and a place where everyone should feel welcome.

The project’s identity must be developed with a thought of proximity, security, and a high environmental and well-being factor for everyone.

The place will have a strong identity with large building structures that break down into smaller village scales with intimate rooms – inside and out, to give a sense of closeness to nature and belonging to the landscaped room.

Those who visit the Favn project will enjoy a rich place, culture, and architecture experience.

The project must maintain a very high architectural quality and at the same time be pragmatically organized and economically feasible.

The experience of the meeting between the place’s distinctive character and future focus on building in the mountain landscape will be clarified through well-functioning and site-adapted buildings.
