“Tradition becomes most powerful when it is allowed to evolve.
From the beginning, our idea was to create a dialogue between Swiss design and international influences. Appenzell gave us an extraordinary foundation – its craftsmanship, materiality, precision and deep relationship between architecture and landscape.
Rather than reproducing tradition, we wanted to build on it and push it forward. Fluid forms, unexpected material combinations and moments of bold expression meet the restraint and permanence of Swiss design.
That tension between craftsmanship and innovation, familiarity and surprise became essential to the identity of HUUS QUELL.
For me, HUUS QUELL represents a new interpretation of alpine hospitality – one that understands where it comes from, yet has the confidence to move beyond what is expected.”
