Chasa Arvina – Web design & UI · Concept by allkind
Web design concept for the mountain hotel Chasa Arvina.
A house where time slows down needs a website that doesn’t push.
A small hotel at the end of a valley. The website should show what a stay feels like before you book.
Large landscape images, a warm serif for the feelings and a sober grotesque for everything practical. Booking is visible from the start.
A presence that feels calm and still leads to an enquiry: rooms, bath, kitchen and experiences, each with a clear next step.
The idea
Chasa Arvina is our concept for a small mountain hotel in Val Fex, a car-free side valley in the Engadin: stone, Swiss pine, 24 rooms and plenty of quiet.
The question behind it: how do you sell silence without getting loud? Our answer is a website that above all does one thing, which is leave space.
Rooms you can picture
Each room gets a large image, three facts and a starting price in CHF. That’s all it takes to decide.
The booking bar is already on the homepage: room, arrival, departure, guests. If you’ve fallen in love, you shouldn’t have to search.
Typography with two voices
An italic serif carries the feelings: “langsamer” (slower), “Arvenholz” (Swiss pine), “hergibt” (has to offer). A sober grotesque carries everything you need to know: prices, times, temperatures.
So the page reads like a conversation with hosts who are warm and exact at the same time.
One valley, two seasons
The experiences can be switched between summer and winter: hiking to the glacier or a starlit evening on the roof terrace. Plus a newsletter that comes four times a year, in step with the rhythm of the valley.
The website is set up in three languages: German, English and Romansh.
«Slow is the new luxurious.»
