JUvET LANdSCAPE HOTEL I n the rugged landscape of the northwest coast of Norway, overlooking forested watery scenes, the Juvet Landscape Hotel is set in a small rural hamlet of Alstad, part of the valldal valley. Known for its fertile grounds, the valley covers its landscape with cherries, apples, raspberries, and even strawberries when season allows it. In between the surrounding green, vertical hills Juvet Landscape rooms offer privacy like no other. The dark geometric designs of the private quarters shield against the bursting colours in spring, summer and autumn and offer contrast in the white winter months. Set in timber with giant-sized windows, the rooms overlook waterways and the countryside further afield. The minimalist cuboids make sure you only have eyes for each other, along with being smitten with the contemporary design elements and its surrounding nature. Inside, raw walls and flooring, soft finishing and plops of vibrant colour in the bathroommake for a distinct setting, stark yet calming. A little higher up, the Juvet “birdhouses” offer an even more minimalist approach—smaller in size, yet ever so adoring. www.juvet.com
