UK studio Hugh Broughton Architects has collaborated with American designer Rick Owens to create a prototype off-grid mountain refuge for the latest Moncler's Genius show, which took place in Shanghai.
Designed to provide a warm sanctuary in harsh environments, the shelter has a faceted shape that contains a mezzanine bedroom, bathroom and a small combined kitchen and living area.

It was created to coincide with the launch of the Owens' clothing collaboration with Moncler and for the latest edition of the fashion brand's annual show, which this year was titled City of Genius.
In addition to building a prototype refuge for the show, Hugh Broughton Architects designed a fully functioning version of the shelter that can be made to order.

It was designed to provide refuge in harsh mountain conditions
The refuge has a steel structural frame enclosed with 20 glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) composite panels, which contain polyisocyanurate (PIR) insulation and were finished with brushed stainless steel facing.
The faceted metal shape was raised from the ground on adjustable steel legs so it can be positioned on uneven mountain terrain.

The compact interior and reflective surfaces were informed by a mountain shelter by Charlotte Perriand and
Hugh Broughton Architects' design was informed by Le Refuge Tonneau, a mountain shelter designed by architects Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret in 1938.
"Charlotte Perriand's project is a masterclass in thoughtful and aspirational design in a mountainous setting," studio founder Hugh Broughton told Dezeen.
"The cleverly designed micro interior is both practical and elegant, whilst its exterior is clad with highly insulated shiny aluminium panels to respond to and minimise the impact on its snowy context."
A set of entrance steps, which fold away when not in use, lead to an airlock on the lower level of the refuge, designed to protect the internal spaces from harsh weather.
A small kitchen and living area was furnished with a log-burning stove and a day bed with built-in storage. The bathroom was placed at the rear of the shelter, with a double bed was tucked into a mezzanine upper level.
Photovoltaic panels, ground-based solar arrays and a wind turbine were added to power the off-grid shelter, and its interior surfaces were lined with padded duvet nylon from Moncler and felted wool.

休·布勞頓說:“這次的設(shè)計兼顧了實用性和舒適性,讓人們可以在寒冷的室外環(huán)境中得到休息和放松。居民們在進入繭狀環(huán)境之前,可以將濕衣服和滑雪板存放在一個有排水地板的小氣閘艙內(nèi),艙內(nèi)鋪有設(shè)計師瑞克·歐文斯(Rick Owens)標志性的羊毛毯。額外的儲物空間和生命維持系統(tǒng)則位于樓梯下方,而樓梯本身則通向一個緊湊但奢華的睡眠區(qū)域,可以讓居住者欣賞到戶外的景色?!?br />
"The layout balances practicality with comforts to give respite from the cold outside," said Broughton.
"Wet clothing and skis can be stored in a small airlock space with a drained floor before the inhabitants move into a cocoon-like environment, which is lined with Rick Owens' signature felt blankets," he continued.
"Additional storage and the 'life support systems' are located under a staircase, which itself leads to a compact yet luxurious sleeping area with views to the outside."
