It has that Sixties', Alpine feeling. Doesn't really much resemble that memorable "living room" that was the Christmas set for Frank and Bing, except for the cozy, "suspended fireplace" look, which I always love. Instant, endlessly atmospheric focal point-- if you can tear yourself away from the view outside!
Especially in December, love chalet interiors. Of course, a la Sixties', the furniture is classically more linear and squared off than I prefer. This wood and glass charmer is in Chamonix, France. Even the dining room is determinedly "modern" but still looks like a fun place to hang out, serve fondue. How retro can you get?!
Exterior:
Whoever did the lighting on this house, they were good. Both the moody living room, and the house's lit exterior as twilight approaches, suggest a warm retreat from winter's chilly blasts...
