Located in front of Llanquihue Lake, the “Typical area” of Frutillar is characterized by its heritage architectural richness, promoting the conservation of the traditional buildings. Some building typologies are recovered which involve shapes, heights, ornamentations, levels, and characteristic elements, such as the homogeneity of materials, separated housing, and front yards.

An important part of Frutillar’s identity is the strong relation of their buildings with the natural surroundings (Lake and Volcanoes). Thus, one of the criteria for the intervention was to raise the building over the plot through the pillars like inverted pyramids, providing more altitude so that all the rooms of the hostelry have a view to the Llanquihue Lake and Osorno Volcano.
