This chalet-style mountain villa is located on the exclusive Suvretta hillside in St. Moritz. The project was realized in collaboration with the Paris architects Studio Jacques Garcia. Despite its size of 4200 square meters, the house looks well-proportioned and embedded. This thanks to the division into three traditionally shaped structural bodies and natural stone arches in which the pool and garage are located. Technical rooms were organized entirely underground. The combination of sun-burnt larch wood and a robust natural stone base is typical in the Alps and roots the building in the surrounding landscape. A wide terrace overlooks the Engadin lakes and provides plenty of recreational space in the garden. The interior offers a living experience of superlatives, which always keeps its charm and local touch.The interiors of the project were realized in collaboration with the Parisian architect Studio Jacques Garcia.
