Snow holds a very special appeal for people. As the leading company in snow production, it is TechnoAlpin’s goal to bring the experience of spellbinding snow to all corners of the world, whether it is on the ski slopes or inside enclosed rooms. The possibilities of application in this area are almost infinite. Large-scale winter landscapes make up just as large a part of our range as SnowRooms do for spas. But the magical winter world in the Silent Light Chamber of Wonder is a first even for snow experts. The simulation of snowfall with real snowflakes swirling down from the ceiling is unique to the Swarovski Crystal Worlds. At 62 m², the Chamber of Wonder is also considerably larger than other snow rooms. Resource-friendly technology was given high priority in this project, with one liter of water transforming into five liters of snow. Temperature range: between –2° and –10°C Active snow nozzles: 5
The romantic idea of a winter wonderland transports the experience of a snowy Alpine landscape into the interior, and brings this magic to life all year round. Visitors enter a fairy-tale, snow-covered land with ice crystals and snow falling all around them. In this enchanting setting, they are able to make an emotional connection between the common notions of winter, forests, and nature and their own memories.
The Silent Light crystal tree stands in the center, and was originally designed by Tord Boontje and fashion designer Alexander McQueen for the Victoria and Albert Museum in London before being transferred to Swarovski Kristallwelten (Swarovski Crystal Worlds) in 2005.
Born in 1968 in Enschede, Dutch designer Tord Boontje now lives in London. His multidisciplinary portfolio includes work in the fields of product, furniture, and lighting design. He is known for translating qualities inspired by nature, such as warmth, light, color, and beauty, into everyday objects and spaces. His iconic designs include his Blossom chandelier, which is a modern classic.
