SIX SENSES RESIDENCES – COURCHEVEL , FRANCE

London based design house , Morpheus & Co ., was appointed to create a full turnkey scheme for eight apartments perfectly positioned in the iconic ski resort of 1850 Courchevel in France – home to some of the world ’ s finest pistes , designer shopping hubs and Michelin-starred fine dining .
Responsible for the full bespoke design , procurement and delivery of the luxurious apartments – spanning from 800sq ft to 2,500 sq ft – Morpheus & Co thoughtfully designed each unique home to embrace the very essence of traditional mountain and luxury living .
Morpheus & Co . began the project by carefully curating an exclusively designed and sensitively crafted colour palette to cater for their client ’ s vision . Tasked with creating a unique and authentic design , whilst seamlessly blending in with the surrounding environment , Morpheus & Co . navigated an interior design concept that created a warm , friendly and allencompassing atmosphere .
Utilising their skills and expertise to combine contemporary and traditional Alpine living , light colours were selected to give a feeling of home comfort which perfectly dovetails with the facade of the building , which is similar to that of a chalet . The meticulously designed and appointed interiors have taken inspiration from the picturesque Alpine surroundings , from fully bespoke polished goods in dark stained walnut and burnished brass alluding to the mountainous environment , to crisp grey and white Carrera marble emulating the snow and stone of the surrounding peaks .
Morpheus & Co . has catered for every aspect of the way in which owners will enjoy these homes – integrating functionality , practicality and the creation of exceptional spaces to ensure comfort and warmth for everyone that experiences this mountain living . Open plan kitchen / dining and living spaces incorporate tonal shades of earth and forest which , combined with a palette of tranquil grey , echoes the changing landscape and evolving seasons that envelop the apartments . What ’ s more , inspired by its alpine surroundings and skiing culture , Morpheus & Co . customcurated a line of furniture pieces and accessories to provide the perfect setting for après ski relaxation as well as the ideal setting for entertainment - embellishing the spaces with carefully selected , layered artwork and accessories to complement the contemporary rustic architecture .
