ATMOSPHERE by Krallerhof is a sculptural alpine spa retreat designed by Hadi Teherani Architects GmbH. The ambition was to create more than a spa, establishing a place of regeneration that preserves the Alpine environment while setting a new benchmark for European wellness destinations. The builder-owner placed strong emphasis on sustainability, the sparing use of resources, and the protection of biodiversity, paired with the desire for a design that is both timeless and unique.

Hadi Teherani Architects GmbH responded with a holistic concept that lets the landscape take centre stage. The iconic split-roof structure, sweeping over 100 metres, forms a sculptural silhouette while blending into the mountain panorama. At its heart lies a spring-fed lake with a 50-metre infinity pool, surrounded by Kebony wood decking that withstands alpine conditions while offering warmth and natural character.

The western glass façade is the true showpiece. It can descend entirely into the ground, dissolving boundaries so guests move seamlessly between spa and landscape, in constant dialogue with mountains, light and water. Inside, lime wood, ash, oak, and alpine marble continue the narrative of authenticity and locality. The CNC-milled lamella ceiling and bespoke furnishings highlight both innovation and craftsmanship.

From the roofline echoing mountain curves to the precision engineering of the retractable façade, every element belongs to its setting. ATMOSPHERE by Krallerhof demonstrates how Hadi Teherani Architects GmbH creates architecture that is striking yet respectful, luxurious yet sustainable, and rooted in its environment while offering a vision of modern alpine hospitality.
