건축은 그 자체로 특정한 장소와 시간, 그리고 재료가 만나는 감각적인 몸이다. - 피터 줌터 Peter Zumthor

시간과 물성이 빚어낸 건축적 번역  Tristan Auer - Rosewood Courchevel Le Jardin Alpin

[공간의 정체성과 진정한 럭셔리의 조건]
트리스탄 아우어가 설계한 로즈우드 쿠르슈벨 르 자르뎅 알팽은 프랑스 쿠르슈벨에 위치한 최고급 알파인 리조트다. 세상에는 주어진 설계 지침을 충실히 따르는 데 만족하는 건축물이 있는가 하면, 럭셔리의 진정한 감각이 무엇인지에 대한 고유의 분위기와 기억, 그리고 건축적 담론을 선명하게 결정화하는 공간도 존재한다. 로즈우드가 처음 선보이는 이 겨울 리조트는 분명 후자에 속한다. 레 트루아 발레로 곧장 이어지는 쿠르슈벨 1850의 유서 깊은 자르뎅 알팽 구역에 자리한 이 프로젝트는, 스스로의 정체성을 명확히 인지하고 있는 공간만이 가질 수 있는 고요한 자신감을 드러낸다.

[과거의 영광을 동시대적 언어로 번역하다]
건축가 아우어가 직면한 과제는 일종의 시간적 번역이었다. 1960년대 알프스 여행이 지녔던 신화적인 글래머스를 존중하면서도, 단순히 과거를 답습하는 향수에 머물지 않고 진정한 동시대적 결과물을 어떻게 창조할 것인가 하는 문제였다. 1961년 쿠르슈벨에 세계 최초의 산악 공항이 문을 열었을 때, 이곳은 전후 시대의 특수한 럭셔리를 선보이는 무대가 되었다. 그것은 험준한 대자연을 배경으로 산장에 도착하는 경이로운 순간, 산을 굽이쳐 내려오는 극적인 과정, 그리고 그 속에서 역동적으로 움직이는 인간의 신체가 만들어내는 럭셔리였다. 아우어는 이러한 역사성을 바탕으로 전통적인 샬레 건축의 전형을 과거의 유물로 남겨두지 않고, 물성과 장인 정신에 대한 살아있는 공간적 담론으로 새롭게 치환해 냈다. 이는 최근 알파인 호스피탈리티 건축이 내놓은 가장 설득력 있는 결과물 중 하나다.

[물성이 빚어내는 차가움과 따뜻함의 조율]
건물의 파사드는 이 프로젝트의 전반적인 분위기를 즉각적으로 설정한다. 스위스 건축가 피터 줌터의 발스 온천장에서 사용된 것과 동일한 스위스산 발스 규암은 건물에 억겁의 지질학적 시간을 부여하며 대지에 단단히 뿌리내리게 한다. 동시에 구리로 마감된 디테일과 수작업으로 깎아낸 지역 목재는 공간에 인간적인 척도를 부여하여, 알프스의 웅장함이 자칫 인공적이고 차가운 느낌으로 변질되는 것을 막아준다. 질감을 거스르지 않고 대자연을 공간으로 끌어들이는 방식은, 원초적인 자연과 아늑한 친밀감 사이의 정교한 조율을 거쳐 실내 공간의 모든 층위로 흐트러짐 없이 이어진다.

[형태를 넘어선 빛과 지질학적 은유]
일부 스위트룸에 설치된 소금 블록 바는 이번 프로젝트에서 형태적으로 가장 창의적인 시도 중 하나다. 히말라야 소금은 빛을 반사하기보다 흡수하고 굴절시키며, 시간의 흐름에 따라 변화하는 은은하고 깊이 있는 온기를 뿜어낸다. 주변 산의 능선과 호응하도록 각도를 낸 이 형태들은 지질학적 은유를 단순한 표면 장식으로 전락시키지 않고 직관적으로 전달한다. 동일한 소재로 맞춤 제작된 카라페이스 벽부등은 이러한 논리를 확장하며 공간 전체를 아우르는 물성의 일관성을 한층 더 깊게 완성한다.

[장인 정신을 품은 원초적 럭셔리의 완성]
살토 바에서 전기톱으로 투박하게 깎아낸 바 테이블의 베이스는, 대부분의 최고급 인테리어가 교묘하게 감추려 하는 수작업의 흔적을 대담하게 드러낸다. 산속 벌목꾼들을 향한 이러한 오마주는 단순히 옛 분위기를 내기 위한 피상적인 장치가 아니다. 이는 알프스의 물질문화가 척박한 환경 속에서 특정 도구를 쥔 인간의 육체적 노동으로 빚어졌음을 인정하는 것이며, 가장 매력적인 럭셔리는 이러한 사실을 외면하는 것이 아니라 온전히 껴안을 때 탄생한다는 선언이다. 빙하를 연상시키는 반투명한 금빛 유리 바 상판은 이 구성에 방점을 찍으며, 인공과 자연의 요소를 매력적인 긴장감 속에서 조화롭게 엮어낸다. 서울에서 출발해 이탈리아 베르가모의 미쉐린 스타 주방을 거쳐 온 조이아 백 셰프가 이끄는 다이닝 프로그램 역시 이 건축물과 같은 결을 공유한다. 지역의 본질에 깊이 뿌리를 두면서도 완전히 독창적인 자신만의 세계를 견고하게 구축하고 있다.

Tristan Auer-Rosewood Courchevel Le Jardin Alpin

Rosewood Courchevel Le Jardin Alpin is a luxury alpine resort located in Courchevel, France, designed by Tristan Auer. There are properties that fulfill a brief, and there are properties that seem to crystallize something  a mood, a memory, an argument about what luxury can actually feel like. Rosewood’s debut winter resort occupies the latter category. Perched within the storied Jardin Alpin enclave of Courchevel 1850, with direct access to Les Trois Vallées, the project arrives with the quiet confidence of something that knows exactly what it is.

The challenge Auer faced was one of temporal translation  how to honor the mythologized glamour of 1960s alpine travel while producing something genuinely contemporary rather than merely nostalgic. When Courchevel opened the world’s first mountain airport in 1961, it became a stage for a very particular kind of postwar luxury, defined by physical arrival, by the theater of descent, by bodies in motion against dramatic natural backdrops. His response treats the chalet typology not as a historical document but as a living spatial argument about materiality and craft – and it is one of the more convincing such arguments in recent alpine hospitality.

The facade establishes the project’s tonal register immediately. Vals Quartzite  the same Swiss stone associated with Peter Zumthor’s thermal baths in Vals – grounds the building in geological time, while copper accents and hand-carved local timber introduce the human scale that prevents alpine grandeur from tipping into institutional coldness. This calibration between the elemental and the intimate runs through every layer of the interior, and it never wavers.

The salt block bars in select suites are among the most formally inventive gestures in the project. Himalayan salt absorbs and refracts light rather than reflecting it, producing a diffused warmth that shifts with the hour. Angled to echo the surrounding mountain silhouettes, these forms make the geological reference literal without becoming decorative. The custom Carapace wall lights fashioned from the same material extend the logic, reinforcing a material consistency that feels more architectural than ornamental.

At SALTO, the bar base carved by chainsaw makes craft labor visible in a way that most luxury interiors carefully conceal. The reference to mountain woodcutters is not merely atmospheric  it acknowledges that alpine material culture was shaped by specific tools and specific bodies, and that the most compelling luxury can be built from this acknowledgment rather than in spite of it. The translucent gold-infused glass bar top introduces the glacier reference, completing a composition that holds industrial and natural registers in productive tension. Under Chef Gioia Baek, whose trajectory runs from Seoul through the Michelin-starred kitchens of Bergamo, the culinary program carries the same spirit – deeply rooted, yet entirely its own.
