Internationally renowned Italian luxury brand FENDI and renowned Swiss real estate developer Steiger&Cie/Sotheby’s International Realty are pleased to announce the launch of the highly anticipated FENDI Private Residences in Crans-Montana.

Comina Architecture, Marco Costanzi Architects and Enea Landscape Architecture worked together to create such a luxurious and extraordinary building, located in the stunning Swiss Alpine scenery, perfectly integrated with nature, and setting a new standard for high-end residences.

The very special FENDI Private Residences are surrounded by rich history and tradition, built on the foundations of the century-old Alpina & Savoy Hotel, which is loved by tourists and locals from all over the world. Working with Michèle Luyet, the fourth generation representative of the original Alpina & Savoy Hotel, FENDI Residences pays homage to the site’s rich history while providing world-class comfort and service to a new generation of discerning residents.

Under the leadership of FENDI, a unique concept was introduced in this forward-thinking collaboration, perfectly integrating its famous key elements and design concepts to create an architectural marvel that blends neatly with the surrounding landscape.

Designed by renowned Italian architect Marco Costanzi, who designed the FENDI Private Suites in Rome, and built using the expertise of local contract architect Comina Architecture, the interiors of these residences and suites display meticulous attention to detail. From the smoothly carved Valmalenco stone structure and its elegant geometric lines – a tribute to Karl Lagerfeld’s iconic FENDI Astuccio reversible fur cape – to the warmth brought by the oak floors, Mario Nanni’s unique lamps, FENDI Casa fur-upholstered furniture and vibrant artwork, every carefully designed element ensures ultimate comfort, creating an unparalleled living environment.

Residents will enjoy full concierge services, private dining and state-of-the-art amenities, including a spa with panoramic views of the snow-capped mountains (complete with pool, sauna, hammam, massage room and hot tub), and a gym with multipurpose space available for yoga and wellness classes. FENDI Private Residences focuses on sustainability through comprehensive insulation, electrochromic glass on south-facing building facades, solar roofs to power common areas and electric vehicles, and recycling rainwater to water lush gardens , to achieve the best energy usage performance and comfort. Enea Landscape Architecture, known for its focus on harmonizing architecture with nature, cleverly integrated the building into the surrounding landscape, allowing for picturesque views in every season. The concept of “natural edge” runs throughout the entire project. The house is surrounded by native Scots pine and European hornbeam plantings, blending in with the adjacent forest. Carefully placed native trees and plants complement the alpine views, ensuring a sense of uninterrupted scenery, while climbing plants soften architectural elements and gravel paths wind through wildflower meadows. From outdoor adventures in stunning natural settings to cultural experiences, residents will find they have options to immerse themselves in and create precious memories.

The FENDI Private Residences architecture demonstrates the pillars of authenticity, exclusivity and appeal, ensuring complete immersion in the FENDI lifestyle, where every aspect of the living experience reflects the unparalleled luxury and sophistication associated with the iconic FENDI brand.

Serge Brunschwig, Chairman and CEO of FENDI, said: “We are delighted to launch this new development in Crans-Montana. FENDI Private Residences is dedicated to its ideal location, impeccable design and outstanding facilities.
