The property is a two-storey chalet, perched atop a multi-storey building. Despite it being built within a brand new development, it was essential for the clients and myself to ensure the property felt and looked vernacular yet contemporary and elegant. We revisited the developer’s space planning of the unit entirely and thoughtfully specified materials and details inscribing it in the long alpine residence tradition, revisited. Our focus was on natural, local, sustainable materials and traditional methods and craftsmanship to create easily maintained functional, elegant, comfort and style.
