New Refuge Gervasutti :

This is an interesting prefabricated tube structure located in Mount Blanc Range Torino Italy. It was designed as a refuge station for climbers to spend the night in. This structure was designed by LEAP Architects from Italy. It has an amazing interior which one wouldnt expect when looking at the exteriour of the structure. This particular design amazed me in the way that the structure sits at the edge of the cliff, has materials that stand out but still maintains a suttle and environmentally friendly feel on the site as.

The architects designed the struture to withstand the extreme environment and cinditions to which it is located. " The materials used with this structure are of high standared and use sophisticated technology capable of handling the problems of extreme temperatures and difficulties of installation".www.webecoist.momtastic.com
