Cloud Rock Wilderness Lodge

Cloud Rock Wilderness Lodge

The Cloud Rock Wilderness Lodge designed by Peter Zumthor is located in Moab, Utah about three hours from where I grew up. Designed by one of the top hundred architects of the century you would think google images would have more than two pictures of the building. You would be wrong. The Cloud Rock Wilderness Lodge is the center of a lot of controversy about bringing consumerism and investors into one of America’s last really isolated wilderness areas. Design wise, the building has some interesting columns and window layout, but this is the only view I could find so that’s about it. I thought the controversy was interesting on its own and currently the building out of the lodge is on hold for the forseeable future. If you want to read more on it the website of a Grand County newspaper this is it. https://www.canyoncountryzephyr.com/oldzephyr/june-july2002/cloudrock-controversy-lchristie.htm
