Bunker Villa

bunker villa, the villa vals
An Alpine holiiay home/cabin (now a resort villa available for booking) hidden in a mountain slope. Can this be done in the Philippines? I guess so but would require close scrutiny from city/municipal engineering divisions as lotsa earth shall be moved and the structure will not only support its heavy concrete-self, but the top earth load as well. What nice about this Villa Vals project is it not only spectacular engineering-wise, but the interior (stone + concrete + wood furniture) is really something as well.
Surprised that it was permissible to construct a pair of dwellings so close to the world famous thermal bath of Vals, the client seized the opportunity to develop the site, without disturbing the bath’s expansive views. The introduction of a central patio into the steep incline creates a large façade with considerable potential for window openings. The viewing angle from the building is slightly inclined, giving an even more dramatic view of the strikingly beautiful mountains on the opposite side of the narrow valley.
