A chic and elegant Winter cafe at the foot of the Cervin

‍

To celebrate the end of the year, Nespresso has unveiled a prestigious collaboration with the Fusalp brand, a veritable icon of luxury in the world of winter sports, creating a chic alpine experience for coffee lovers that combines refinement and elegance.

‍

Nestled in the gardens of the Grand Hotel Zermatterhof, this contemporary dome offers an après-ski experience like no other! Coffee lovers can enjoy exclusive winter creations, from the Alpine Espresso Martini to a revisited latte and a recipe with Christmas spices.

The detailed technical solution provided by our team

1. An 11m diameter white dome and panoramic crystal membrane with a breathtaking view of the starry sky for 360° visibility.
2. A set of suspended lights lined with large spotlights were fixed to the ceiling to create a warm, weightless and contemporary light scenography.
3. A custom-made double-door airlock was installed at the entrance to the dome, revealing a beautiful illuminated copper sign featuring the logos of both brands.

An ambitious project in FUGU's DNA

‍

1. Complex high-altitude logistics with x2 load transfers (7t of material transported overland, then by rail, then electrically)
2. Meticulous assembly techniques with faceted scenography around the entire periphery of our structure
3. Thermal insulation: A rational electrical heating system (a mix of aerothermal and infrared heaters to limit electricity consumption while guaranteeing heating comfort) and ventilation were installed to mitigate as far as possible the phenomenon of condensation due to temperature differences between the inside and outside of the structure.
