Our house is a traditional brick-built building. The best carpenters in South Tyrol took care of the interior and created custom-made fine furnishings and loving details made from solid wood (old spruce, Swiss stone pine, oak). The roof and balconies are made of local spruce and larch.
Thanks to photovoltaic systems and the use of natural resources, we use green electricity and have our own independent energy supply. Energy efficiency, for example through thermal insulation and energy-saving heating, is a top priority. The whole interior of the building is fitted with underfloor heating, the maximum flow temperature is 30 °C. Resource conservation is also important to us: The water for flushing the WC and irrigating the green areas comes from our own spring or our 20,000 l rainwater tank.

Our contribution to the environment:
- organic construction
- independent energy supply
- natural thermal insulation
- energy-saving heating
- rainwater harvesting
- wood from local forests
