Far from the geometric construction methods of a traditional chalet, the interior architecture of this family home is a domestic landscape whose forms emerge from the ground like small functional mountains rising from a valley. Reso¬lutely fluid and modern, the result is a set of lines and organic forms composed around a strip of wood. A large, main room is set above the whole construction, defining the central point of the chalet where the family comes together around a warm hearth.
