The Bergkristall Of Glis Unique Architect House With Panoramic View

On the quiet and sought-after Napoleonstrasse in Brig-Glis, a residential masterpiece awaits you, which cannot be found a second time in the Upper Valais.

Light, Glass, and Noble Marble
Marble flooring in the living room and an elegant marble staircase set a tone from the very beginning. The centerpiece is the transparent glass roof peak of the crystal: Through a hexagonal, walkable bulletproof glass element in the living room ceiling, daylight flows through the entire house. Floor-level large windows bring glare-free northern light into the rooms. The thoughtful orientation provides natural heat protection in summer, making air conditioning unnecessary. The room structure offers open living areas as well as quiet retreats.
