The house gets its name from the three extruded wings that radiate from the main body of the house, allowing the client spectacular panoramic views of the area
Locally-sourced Norwegian pine was the material of choice both externally and internally, giving the house a uniformly sleek and modern feel. The timber is complemented by large windows allowing for ample natural light and sophisticated, uncluttered interiors
At the centre of the floor plan stands the kitchen, with its cantilevered concrete work surface
Steps lead up to the dining room, located in one of the wings
'Quality of wood is far too often hidden behind paints and oils,' says RAA director Reiulf Ramstad, who works extensively with untreated timber
The floor plan spans different levels, twisting to follow the contours of the mountain site
Parts of the structure house built-in nooks and crannies dressed with soft cushions and pillows, offering places for quiet respite looking out across uninterrupted views
The floor plan includes a small semi-detached annex, containing one bedroom and a bathroom for visiting family and friends
Against a dense blanket of snow, the holiday home appears like a beacon of warmth and comfort amidst the expansive Norwegian landscape
