This contemporary chalet interior is conceived as a suitable backdrop for art and also a welcoming environment for family and friends. The idea of art and family became the inspiration, theme, and organizational backbone of the entire project. In a subtle way, all the artwork selected for the chalet gives a nod to certain things one might see in more traditional mountain homes.

Without falling into a cliché of “Swiss chalet” style, traditional building materials were used in a much more tailored, pared-down fashion. Only four materials were used in the interiors: Pierre de Vals stone, locally sourced pine paneling, blackened metal, and plaster.
