Chalet Indigo, Megéve.

Located in Mont d’Arbois, this is one of very few luxury chalets in the resort that is truly “ski in, ski out”. Situated on the Baron de Rothschild′s land, Chalet Indigo impresses from the front door. The indoor pool is found on the ground floor, offering variable depth and can also be converted into a conference room with the jacuzzi and hammam alongside. The home-cinema is also transformable – think cinema come nightclub, fully equipped with bar, deep sofas, equipment for a DJ and a karaoke machine; an adaptable space, perfect for either use. The stunning first floor living room is vast, joining the dining room with relaxing nooks, all of which open onto a terrace overlooking the piste.

The exclusive chalets provide the perfect balance between tradition and modern functionality. They enjoy the luxury of the highest quality finishes and unique unconventional equipment and services. Large bay windows brighten the interior and there are wide terraces on several levels for relaxation.  Each chalet has a spacious living room with a fireplace, a contemporary dining room and a fully equipped kitchen. The lounge area includes a home cinema and bar.  Every chalet has 5 or 6 bedrooms with dressing rooms. The elegant bathrooms are architectural masterpieces in glass, chrome and Zimbabwean black stone. An iPad, iPod station and LED-screen TV complete the picture of perfection.

Chalet Brickell by Pure Concept.

The chalet enjoys the luxury of a stunning setting at the heart of Megève. This exceptional chalet, with its guest house, blends in perfectly with the smalltown. Situated at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by nature, it seems to have found its natural place. Designed to precise specifications, down to the tiniest detail, it offers the rich sobriety of noble materials, the subtlety of elegant combinations, and a superbly functional space. Nothing is left to chance. Every accessory has its role to play: a breath of colour, a glow of light, bespoke rugs, unique motifs. Behind this chic modernity lies a truly authentic simplicity.

Mountain House by David Guerra Architecture

All private and social areas were developed in one single level which faces the mountains. The verandas of these premises are turned to a grassy courtyard where the swimming pool with a deck, a  douche, a water mirror and a cascade is located. The materials were chosen with the aim to combine beauty, snugness and ease of maintenance and to create a contrast between natural and technological materials such as reclaimed wood, stones, earthenware, bamboo, tile, fiber, metal, stainless steel, double glazed and laminated glass, glass tile, anodized aluminum, wood venetian and tecnocimento. The use of wood on the floor, the walls and the ceiling as well as the massive wooden doors cause noise absorption which increases the acoustic comfort. The cantilever roofing of the verandas made of steel structure, bamboo and polycarbonate offer shading and create a village atmosphere. There was no intention to follow a fad by the choice of the furniture. Rather each article of furniture was selected carefully to reflect the personal history of the occupants with their multiplicity, their references and values. The furniture includes classic, rustic, contemporary designs and pieces made by Brazilian designers. All the furniture give to the entire area a sense of lightness and fluidity that enable to see through them, the landscape.
