Do you work on second homes and chalets?

In short

Yes. We work with owners of chalets and second homes in Valais and in Chamonix, where we have an address. From design to site coordination, you have one single point of contact, which matters when you are not on site. Each project combines warm materials, well-planned storage and character.

A second home is lived in differently from a main residence. It often welcomes family and friends, needs to be easy to open and close, and should feel like a true refuge. In a chalet, you also work with wood, mountain light and sometimes unusual volumes.

Two chalets, two characters

In Crans-Montana, the L’Eglise chalet plays with colour, design and smart storage. In Chamonix, the Les Praz chalet combines natural wood, black touches and leather. Both show that a chalet can stay warm without falling into cliché.

What we take on

  • The on-site survey and diagnosis, then the concept and plans.
  • The choice of materials, furniture and custom pieces.
  • Calls for tenders and the selection of trusted craftsmen.
  • Site coordination and quality control, with one point of contact.

Distance and permits

When you live elsewhere, we centralise communication and follow-up so you do not have to keep travelling. If the works touch the structure, a window or the use of a room, an authorisation may be needed: check with the commune in Valais or with the mairie in France. We look at these points from the concept stage.

Key takeaways

  • We work on chalets and second homes in Valais and Chamonix.
  • One point of contact coordinates the project, even from a distance.
  • Permit needs are checked at the concept stage with the commune or mairie.
