Modunita Architects has renovated Hof & Hist in Graubünden, Switzerland.

This project was the renovation of existing buildings located in the municipality of Felsberg in Graubünden – the historical stock consisted of a residential house with a hay barn.

Over time, this stock was expanded and supplemented with some additions.

"The basic idea was to enhance the historic buildings, whereby the subsequent additions were to be demolished," said Modunita Architects.

The shape of the old hay barn was preserved but extended with the same basic shape in the ridge direction – whereas the body connecting both buildings was deconstructed and extended with a simple wooden structure.

This project has been longlisted in the house renovation category of Dezeen Awards 2023.
