A private alpine house · Crans-Montana
Above it all.Entirely yours.
01 A house, not a hotel
The Alps, withroom to exhale.
A clearing in the larches. The Rhône valley below. A house of glass, stone and reclaimed timber, turned towards the sun.
Bring your favourite people. All five bedrooms, the fire, the long table and the mountain views are yours alone.
The great room. Fourteen metres of glass; no need to go anywhere.
Architecture by Lemair & Hess, Geneva

into the sun.”

01
House, entirely yours
02 The art of doing very little
Warm.Cold.Repeat.
Cedar heat. A cold plunge fed by a mountain spring. Then back to the terrace, where the water stays at 38°C and the sky keeps changing.
Six places in the sauna. A whole valley beyond the glass.
The last light is best taken slowly.
The sauna, the spring, the open sky.
A small ritual, entirely your own.
03 Stay a little longer
Five rooms.Ten slow mornings.
Each with its own bathroom.
Each with a different piece of the Alps.

04 Out here, a different pace
Followthe season.
Fresh tracks in winter. Long walks through the larches in summer. And between the two, the quiet pleasure of having the mountain almost to yourself.
The Bella Lui lift is four minutes away on foot. The terrace is closer.
