This story began with a wooden hut, a classic ERD\u00c9RT type hut, now for who knows what reason, installed near the forest path leading from Normafa to J\u00e1nos Hill. It is a temporary building or a base for foresters, with wooden walls and corrugated iron sheets. The Vasas Sports Club skiing department found a home in a small wooden chalet near the trail leading to J\u00e1nos Hill in Budapest in 1974, which has served as one of the most important winter sports bases in the country ever since. The time was ripe to replace the nostalgic \u201eretro\u201d conditions with a modern environment. The new building takes on all the features of its predecessor almost to the last inch. As an architectural phenomenon of its own right, the former barracks have carved out their own living space on the site. The recognition of this may have led to the primary decision to do a reinterpretation of the original small building. The axial structure, with its simple composition of volumes and slightly flatter pitched gable roof is a tight, contemporary take on both the forms and the facade. The architectural form, which is deliberately enclosed and geometrically formulaic, is supported by a horizontal frame structure, with pergola-marked units as specific extensions. It is primarily the slope-facing terrace that adds a previously unavailable basic function to the new design. This is also the very message of the building: the structure, which has so far served mainly as a backdrop for professional athletes, is opening up to the wider public with great impetus, and the large terrace is a primary gesture of this. A fully-fledged part of the architectural programme is the ski equipment hire shop, but it also contains a changing area for outsiders who want to take part in winter sports.<\/p>\n
