Mid-range mountains are at the forefront of the current climate and habitability crisis. Global warming is progressing twice as fast in these areas as anywhere else. The consequences are clear to see: the disappearance of snow and its economic corollary, undermining the momentum gained during the post-war boom and its associated investments. This book relates an experiential approach that is simultaneously educational, human, technical, and forward-looking by examining the possible rehabilitation of the Hôtel des Deux-Sœurs, near Grenoble in the French Alps. A “full-scale” and hands-on experiment carried out by researchers at the École nationale supérieure d’architecture.
