Architecture studio Ingenhoven Architects created a range of buildings in the form of the Lanserhof Sylt health resort which is topped with a large and overhanging thatched roof. It is found on the German island of Sylt and celebrates the surrounding dunes through its structure. It features experiences such as traditional spa services including a gym, saltwater swimming pools, a climbing wall, a sauna and steam room, a yoga studio, indoor and outdoor lounges, and more.
Founder of Ingenhoven Architects, Christoph Ingenhoven tells Dezeen, “Our projects are always to be understood as a contemporary reaction to what previous generations have created. At the same time, building on Sylt means being part of a dune in motion. For the Lanserhof we designed buildings in harmony with nature, reduced to the essentials, which is our definition of luxury today.”
