The suite: the rock comes into the room and becomes the wall.
A chalet set
into the rock.

Chalé Cristal

Cast rock grotto, lit at floor level, on the way to the Chalé Cristal lift

At Unique Garden, Atelier O’Reilly imagined suites carved into the mountain. Western cast the rock in the Carbon tone so the landscape would come into the rooms: the wall is the mountain, and the mountain carries on beyond the glass.

SketchFrom drawing to site
Corridor with a Carbon-toned rock wall and a pebble floor under the timber pergola

The rock is continuous and, in the suites, it is the wall itself.

The living room: the rock mass crosses the glass and carries on inside.

Suite with a dark rock wall beside the bed and a wooden floor

The lift passes through a grotto before it reaches the suites.

The cast rock comes into the room above the headboard, lit by a cove

Bedroom with a whole wall of cast rock lit from above

The chalet hides in the mountain, without ostentation.
