Nestled in the snowy folds of the Dolomites, these timber lodges stand at the intersection of architecture and alpine memory. With sharply pitched roofs, deep balconies, and rhythmic façades, they echo the vernacular logic of northern Italian mountain dwellings—structures built not only to withstand winter, but to belong to it. Smoke rises slowly against the forested backdrop, and warm interior light spills into the pale silence of snow. Winter Structures captures the dual nature of shelter in the high Alps: both functional and emotional, precise yet intimate. It is a portrait of place where architecture becomes part of the landscape’s rhythm—anchoring solitude, warmth, and the human scale in vast terrain.
