Embodying a contemporary take on the classic chalet, this year-round abode showcases a harmonious blend of exterior materials, including board form concrete, stucco stone, wood, and blackened steel. Catering to multi-generational living, the house features generously proportioned and open public rooms alongside cozy and secluded private spaces.

Nestled upon 10 acres of stunning yet challenging terrain, the building site posed a unique opportunity for the architects to create something extraordinary, breaking away from conventional home designs. Instead of resisting the land’s natural characteristics, they collaborated harmoniously with the environment, crafting a home with flat roof lines and an elongated profile that seamlessly blends into the site’s inherent beauty.

Positioned to capture the mesmerizing vistas of the surrounding mountains, the home features special European windows that invite abundant natural light and captivating panoramas into every corner. Sliding glass doors connect the indoor and outdoor spaces, inviting nature inside.
