ROTHUUS KLOSTERS

Built in 1928 in a central location in Klosters, the "Rothuus" is considered a building of cultural-historical value and high architectural quality due to its distinctive color scheme and massive sculptural character, and is accordingly classified as worthy of protection by the monument preservation authorities. During the renovation and extension, the task was to rebuild the striking structure, which is atypical for Klosters in many respects, in such a way that the building meets the new requirements and yet loses none of its strength and presence on the site.

The measures implemented were about treating the historical substance with care and respect on the one hand and integrating the new elements confidently and naturally into the Rothuus on the other. It was a question of interweaving the old substance with the new elements, of continuing to build in the spirit of the original architecture with today's means and requirements. In this way, the Rothuus will continue to shape the center of Klosters as a striking, exciting and coherent building.

The conversion and extension has created a pharmacy with modern infrastructure on 2 floors, a studio in the basement and 3 modern apartments on the upper 4 floors, some of which are directly accessible via a newly installed elevator.
