Chalet Kibo by Angelique Buisson

There is no woodland surrounding this high altitude chalet but light oak indoors on floors and walls adds warmth and contrast to sections of rough concrete. Modern and functional without ostentatious luxury, the interior reflects its setting beautifully together with the comfort of pure wool and felt to soften wood stone and concrete. No superfluous decorative accessories clutter the purity of light and clear, sharp colours that reflect the chalet’s magnificent surroundings.
