Following the success of the MountainLab in Adelboden and the InfoPoint in Gletsch, we at gutundgut have once again planned and realized a guest information point - this time in Arosa! The design is based on our "Tourist Info 3.0 Arosa" concept, which we developed for Arosa Tourism in a participatory process. It was important to us to implement the following points: The redesigned guest information desk is much closer to the guest. The focus is on personal advice - flexible, individual and at eye level. The open, inviting space with comfortable seating invites you to linger and creates a natural, relaxed atmosphere for conversation.
The new Arosa Tourist Office is an impressive example of sustainability in action, particularly with regard to circularity. The wooden cladding on the rear wall is an outstanding example of this. This comes from the former shelves of a store just 500 meters away and was professionally reassembled at the new location by the same woodworkers. It would be hard to imagine a more convincing symbol of the circular economy.
The Arosa Tourist Office was realized in close collaboration with our valued project partner Philipp Berweger.
