The same reference reigns inside as well, with a light and bright, spruce wood wrapping across the floor, up the walls and the trice-vaulted ceiling of the mainly open-plan space. The furniture is also constructed from another local wood, oak, while the light gray upholstery is in keeping with the pale-color theme. The décor is minimal yet comfortable, with seating arrangements ranging from very public banquettes and armchairs to private tables and chairs seemingly nestled into the "pockets," or alcoves, along the curvilinear cement structural walls.
The bar beside the restaurant space also maintains that natural, sculptural theme, with oak wood high tables and chairs, a spruce wood vaulted ceiling, and a cement bar opposite a wall of sliding glass doors leading out to the southwest facing terrace. Out here, the Hut's "symbiosis" with the natural and dramatic surrounding environment reaches its summit - no pun intended - as the outdoor seating is orientated to fully embrace the spectacular views. Actually, it is from this vantage point perched into the curving layout of one of the Oberholz Mountain Hut's "branches," that view and spectator become inseparable.
