Gervasutti Hut

I may refer to a piece of architecture or a work of art as important, but nearly all of the time that is in regard to a creative, spiritual or philosophical perspective. The new Gervasutti Hut, a shelter for trapped climbers on Mont Blanc IS important, in the most basic way. It is truly inerrant, because its objectives are to be seen, and give you shelter, and it does both. Architecture of supreme simplicity, but (for the distressed climbers) pure elysium.
