The Design

About Mountain Chalet Private Residence

Mountain Chalet is the interior design of a private mountain villa of 440 square meters in Smilovtsi, Bulgaria. The design combines the characteristic elements of a mountain chalet with a timeless and luxurious character. Natural materials shape the interior, including wood, natural semi-precious stones and natural leather, used in the decor, the wall fixtures and the floorings. Both floors and the spa area are arranged as places to gather friends and guests for relaxation. The concept draws on the owner's childhood memories of the wooden veranda of his grandfather's house.
