The main building is reminiscent of a stately residence in the countryside; deep loggias, as open spaces, visually enlarge the suites and thus intensify the special connection with nature. The new rough, earth-colored plaster combined with the new clear, horizontal wooden structure gives the hotel a noble appearance. 

The new spa area with pool and sauna area connect structurally with the surrounding landscape and impressively opens up with its irregular potholes and pergolas through large panorama windows towards the lake. Directed views from the interior into the surrounding grounds, as well as inside open areas, so-called patios, concisely convey the feeling of being in a large park. 

The design of the outdoor areas also play an important role. A natural unity was created here, in which the space can be walked through on different paths. Contemplative dwellings are spread around the lakeshore. 

The combination of the architecture with the surroundings is most impressive here: the oblique, green roofs of the spa can be used for sunbathing, while this green area seamlessly transitions into the surrounding forests and fruit orchards. Architecture becomes landscape and landscape architecture. 

The location of the heated outdoor pool affects the user as well as the extension of the bathing pond. The water level of the lake is on the same level, so that the infinity channel connects visually with the lake to an infinite water surface. 

The interplay between architecture and interior design creates a holistic design in which guests and the recreation are celebrated within nature.
