The Whitepod Hotel, a unique eco-friendly concept in Monthey, Switzerland, has launched new Zen suite addition to its structure of geodesic domes. Conceived by Montalba Architects, the room draws its inspiration from the traditional Japanese principles of Zen.
Designed around a central circle representing the cycle of time, the pod is outfitted with amenities like an authentic Japanese Furo circular bath framing the views of the Swiss Alps and a pellet stove installed for added warmth. The suite is also attached to a terrace overlooking the scenery, while its meticulously finished wooden walls are curved to define the interiors further.
