奧地利Grand Hotel Straubinger飯店

Working with the layers of the past, so the apt motto for restoring Bad Gastein’s Straubingerplatz with its heritage protected buildings to its former glory. The rehabilitation called for a thoughtful approach; all measures were coordinated with the Federal Monuments Office and the municipality. It was important to the architects to work with – and not against – the remnants and layers of the past; it’s precisely those layers that give old buildings their charm and special appeal and make them so unique.

The new Hotel Straubinger pays homage to the original grand hotel and was born from the facets of its past, boasting understated elegance and poignant grandeur. In the historical reception area guests are immediately captivated by the history of this venerable building, the room cards are handed from a velvet-lined drawer like pieces of jewellery. In line with the principle of “working with the layers of the past”, all areas feature a contrasting mix of old and new.

In the course of restoring the grand hall, gold accents and the original ceiling in the side wings came to light. Historical elements that could not be preserved were given a thoughtful contemporary treatment. The grand hall features modern, fresh colours, refurbished Lobmeyr wall panels and a new chandelier reinforce the French-inspired atmosphere. The heritage-protected solid oak parquet flooring was restored to its original state.

The spa area spans three floors: There is a new pool landscape above the original thermal bath tract, where guests can gaze across Gastein Valley and “swim out into nature” to the sound of the nearby waterfall. The spa’s colour scheme has a maritime feel, with the ceiling above the pool clad with blue tiles. This is complemented by a mix of thermally modified ash wood, exposed concrete, and chrome and wood details.

With regard to the 46 guest rooms, the objective was to preserve the historical fabric, while judiciously complementing it with new elements. The patina on the walls, the surviving doors and other original artefacts are priceless vestiges of the old hotel.

與過去的層次合作是恢復巴德加斯坦施特勞賓格廣場及其受保護建築的核心理念，旨在重現昔日輝煌。這次復原需要深思熟慮的方法，所有措施均與聯邦古蹟辦公室和市政府協調進行。對建築師來說，重要的是與過去的遺跡和層次合作，而非對抗，因為這些層次賦予了舊建築獨特的魅力和吸引力。

新的施特勞賓格酒店向原來的宏偉酒店致敬，從其過去的各個方面汲取靈感，擁有低調的優雅和令人心酸的宏偉。在歷史悠久的接待區，客人會立即被這座古老建築的歷史所吸引，房卡如珠寶般從天鵝絨襯裡的抽屜中取出。本著「與過去的層次合作」的原則，所有區域都展現出新舊融合的特徵。

在修復大廳的過程中，金色的裝飾和兩側的原始天花板被重新展示。無法保留的歷史元素經過深思熟慮的當代處理。大廳採用現代、清新的色彩，翻新的Lobmeyr牆板和新的枝形吊燈，增強了法國風格的氛圍。受遺產保護的實心橡木鑲木地板也恢復到原來的狀態。

水療區橫跨三層，包括在原來的溫泉浴場上方新增的泳池景觀，客人可以在這裡眺望加斯坦山谷，並聆聽附近瀑布的聲音，享受「遊入大自然」的體驗。水療中心的配色方案具有海洋氣息，泳池上方的天花板舖有藍色瓷磚。熱改性白蠟木、裸露的混凝土，以及鉻和木材的細節相互補充，增添了設計的層次感。

46間客房的設計目標是保留歷史結構，同時巧妙地融入新元素。牆上的銅綠、倖存的門和其他原始文物都是這家老酒店的無價遺跡。
