Design of a building for an art museum/alpine ice research station

Scenario:
1) Digitization of the envelope of a traditional habitat.

2) Scooping out hollows within this volume as if it were an ice cavity, but in full wood by a 5 axes drill machine.

3) Water states and flows vary according to the seasons: The ice flows and freezes; the ice fa蓷des freeze and melt, forming a pond in front of the building.

4) Exacerbation of the winter climate by artificial snow (500 m3)

5) Construction by CNC machine processing, 5 axes, in full wood (2000m3-2000 trees, extracted on two years from the maintenance of the forest) and reassembling the manufactured 180 pieces on site.

6) Re-activation of local economy (50% of the annual wood production of the territory of Evol鋝e village on two years)
