Modern design icons meet an authentic Alpine look in Silvia and Andrea’s fabulous family ski retreat.
MAIN LIVING ROOM
With its vast expanse of glazing and soaring double-height ceiling, this space is as jaw-droppingly gorgeous as the Alpine views outside. Get the look The bespoke Murano glass and bronze chandelier is by Italian brand VeniceM. The fireplace, designed by Annalisa Mauri, is clad in Cor-Ten steel with metalwork by Fratelli Rusconi. The Utrecht armchairs are by Gerrit Thomas Rietveld for Cassina. The rug is from Tappeti Contemporanei in Milan. The floor lamp is by Viabizzuno. For a similar curtain fabric, try Rubelli.
WITH ITS STARTLING VIEWS OF SNOW-COVERED ALPINE peaks, Silvia and Andrea’s mountainside retreat puts other ski chalets literally in the shade; a stunning location to not only enjoy the winter slopes, but also for the couple’s family to enjoy a Christmas break in high – very high – style. Astonishingly, this beautifully conceived building, nestling in its surroundings as though it has always been part of the landscape, is just three years old. ‘We were inspired by the architecture of the entire old Savoie region, which at one time also included some of Piedmont, where I was raised in Italy,’ says Silvia. This influence is highlighted through the use of ancient timbers and stone for both the interiors and exterior of the house.
