About House of Architects
Alongside the fantastically luxurious 7132 Hotel is a rather more attainable alternative: the 73-room House of Architects. As its name suggests, its architectural pedigree is impeccable — its rooms, though relatively compact, were designed by Peter Zumthor, Tadao Ando, Kengo Kuma, and Thom Mayne. Kuma and Ando’s rooms are crafted from oak, featuring artful Japanese carpentry; Zumthor and Mayne’s are moodier, in saturated chiaroscuro colors or textures of Vals quartzite. Zumthor’s famous baths are still the main attraction, with 7132’s trio of restaurants as supporting acts.
