Split View Mountain Lodge (also occasionally called Havsdalen Holiday Home or Holiday Home Havsdalen)[2] is an architecture project by the firm Reiulf Ramstad Arkitekter near the ski resort Havsdalen in Geilo, Norway.[3] It won the 2016 German Design Award for Excellent Communications Design in Architecture.[4][5] The house has also been the subject of coverage in architecture magazines including EK and Plain.[6][7] It was commissioned in 2011 by a private client to be a holiday home, to be built with 4 bedrooms.[8]

The building has been praised for integrating into its landscape and being a good example of contemporary Norwegian architecture.[9][10] The home's façade splits into 2 living areas after the main wing.[11][12] There is also a detached annex to accommodate guests.[13]

The siding is largely made from timber, which is a common feature of Norwegian architecture.[14] The timber cladding was chosen because it will change color and become grey over time; an aesthetic choice.[15][16]
