The Alpine Capsule

Famous for his tactile and fluid forms, industrial designer Ross Lovegrove has designed what he calls an ''alpine capsule," to fulfill restaurateur and club owner Moritz Craffonara’s wishes to sleep under the stars atop his private mountain in the Alps.

Not looking to interfere with the total harmony that currently exists between building and environment in the Badia region of Italy, Lovegrove has designed a space age capsule bed which is completely mirrored on the outside, while transparent on the inside, allowing the occupant to be enveloped in a 360 degree view of the magnificent surrounding landscape.
