LUXURY PROPERTY
Complete creation and decoration of a luxury Penthouse with a breathtaking view of the Alps at the foot of a torrent in the residences of the luxury Hotel The Chedi 5 ***** in Andermatt , Switzerland .
Telling a story
An American couple in love with Switzerland and its spectacular nature . Nature that , through the alliance of its forests , lakes and mountains , sets up a picture of majestic simplicity .
Starting from a 3770 square feet concrete slab under an impressive 7 meters high wood structure , Sébastien Caron wanted to create a contemporary living space with a warm and friendly atmosphere , ideal for family reunions and contemplation of the snowy peaks .
Linking a place to its environment
Sébastien Caron attaches great importance to the harmony of the environment of his projects with his interiors . It seemed obvious to him to make reference to the mountains by using various materials such as stone , marble and alabaster , to the forests , by linking different wood species that are both simple and precious , and finally to the snow and cold by various plays of transparency through the use of glass and crystal with various textures echoing the world of ice .
The profile of the mountainous valley that can be admired through the 7-meter high glass wall is also integrated into the project , symbolized by a brass line inlaid in a giant herringbone floor that follows its shape while changing its appearance from a petrified wood to a natural wood .
