Text description by
GlamBOX is a compact, two-story accommodation module designed by Studio Officina82, a firm led by architects Fabio Revetria and Lara Sappa. Completed for the Selucente hospitality project in Garessio, Italy, the structure was inspired by the traditional barns and huts common in the rural Alpine landscape. Measuring 5 by 3 meters, the GlamBOX is crafted from chestnut wood and designed to combine rustic charm with an innovative function: providing guests with a unique, open-air stargazing experience. The ground floor of the GlamBOX features a bedroom and a bathroom. The most distinctive element is a bed mounted on a trolley system that allows it to be moved onto an external platform. This enables occupants to sleep directly under the stars, fully immersed in nature. A mezzanine level above provides additional space for relaxation, reading, or accommodating children.
