Crans Montana House
The Crans Montana house is a large family home set into a steep south facing slope in the Swiss resort of Crans Montana.

The style is not that of a tradition alpine chalet, but serves to reflect the angular mountainous landscape. A essential element of the brief was also to ensure that same landscape was fully displayed through the unusually large and tall windows. The clients also wanted to mirror the complexity of the site to create spacious and striking, multi level interiors... More

Rustic Grade
Nestled in the tranquil haven of a lush forest bordered by a river, this south-facing chalet was initially envisioned as the ideal mini-home to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and the noise of the outside world.
