Chalet Victory

Chalet Victory was crafted by the Compagnons du Devoir, combining brushed split wood, century-old timbers, hand-carved stone, glass, and aluminum. The result is a bold yet harmonious mix: a warm, contemporary home rooted in Savoyard heritage while embracing modernity.

The spaces are striking, especially the cathedral-style living room where your gaze drifts straight into the clouds. ‘When a storm rolls in, it feels as if you’re in the sky,’ say the owners. And when Mont Blanc turns pink at sunset, the adjoining glass-fronted sauna becomes the ultimate vantage point.

The architecture makes an impression, but it’s the interior design that captivates with its subtlety. The owners worked with an interior architect to bring their vision to life: a serene atmosphere that’s cozy yet chic. The palette revolves around white and off-white in a Scandinavian spirit, warmed by honey-toned wood and noble materials.

Furnishings focus on comfort: a plush sofa, an ecru table, and carefully placed Foscarini lighting. The chef-worthy kitchen is clad in 200-million-year-old granite and fitted with Swiss-made Zug appliances. Technology is just as refined, with intuitive home automation, underfloor heating in winter and cooling in summer, plus solar panels that provide half the year’s energy needs. This is discreet luxury, never ostentatious. ‘We thought through every detail so it would be practical, beautiful, and above all a pleasure to live in,’ the owners explain.

For cozy evenings, there’s a private cinema, a ski room with boot warmers, a wine cellar, and even a screen that disappears into the living room ceiling.
