Oh! I could literally sob at the beauty and simplicity of this ‘Pension’ in the Italian alps…
Pension Briol has been owned by the same family for more than a century. In the late 1920s, Viennese painter Hubert Lanzinger, who had married into the family, gutted the existing structure and turned it into a modernist alpine retreat with spacious whitewashed rooms and oversize windows to capture the views; little has changed since—the interior features the original Lanzinger-designed pine furniture, fixtures, and even crockery. Located in the Dolomite mountains of northern Italy, the pension is an hour’s trek up a mountain path from the village of Barbiano.
