The brief presented an exciting and prestigious opportunity to create a world-class interior fit out for Le Farinet, a 5-star hotel in Verbier, Switzerland, with luxurious bedrooms and bars that would embody the essence of indulgence, sophistication, and comfort, while seamlessly integrating with the stunning alpine landscape.

As part of the project, an existing cottage on the property underwent a meticulous refurbishment, resulting in its enchanting transformation into a charming and inviting guest accommodation. The cottage's traditional aesthetic was thoughtfully preserved, harmoniously blending with the surrounding landscape, while interior spaces were revitalised to seamlessly combine age-old charm with contemporary comforts. Upgrades to plumbing and electrical systems were undertaken to meet modern standards, ensuring a seamless and efficient stay for guests. Moreover, the addition of upscale furnishings and premium amenities within the cottage further enriched the overall luxury experience offered by the hotel, providing guests with an exquisite retreat that exudes both comfort and elegance.
Hotel
Rooms & Reception Area
We were commissioned to design and construct the hotel rooms and reception area for a luxury ski hotel in the heart of Verbier, one of the world’s most renowned alpine destinations. The vision was to create a space that combines the warmth and charm of a traditional Swiss chalet with the sophistication and comfort expected by discerning guests. In the hotel rooms, we used high-end materials, including locally sourced timber and plush textiles, to create a cozy yet refined atmosphere. The design focused on maximizing comfort and luxury, with features like custom furnishings, ambient lighting, and spacious layouts that offer breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.
For the reception area, our goal was to craft a grand yet welcoming space that sets the tone for an unforgettable guest experience. We incorporated elegant design elements such as a sleek boot room, rich wood paneling, and modern, minimalist lighting fixtures to create a balance between contemporary luxury and alpine tradition. The result is a reception area that exudes warmth and sophistication, providing guests with an inviting and memorable introduction to their stay at this prestigious ski hotel.
VIP Area
We were entrusted with the design and creation of a bespoke VIP booth for a prestigious ski restaurant and bar in Verbier, aimed at offering guests an unparalleled experience of luxury and comfort. The design centred around a harmonious blend of classic elegance and modern sophistication. Chesterfield leather seating was chosen for its timeless appeal and plush comfort, enveloping guests in an ambiance of exclusivity. The centrepiece of the booth is a custom-designed, backlit table with a stunning marble effect corian, framed with elegant brass panelling along the edges, adding a touch of opulence and refinement.
To further elevate the space, the walls are adorned with rich larch panelling, providing warmth and a connection to the alpine environment. Diamond-bevelled mirror tiles were strategically placed to enhance the sense of space and reflect the soft lighting, creating a mesmerizing visual effect. The booth is framed with ornate plaster coving, a nod to classic design elements that seamlessly blend with the modern features. The result is a luxurious, intimate setting that perfectly complements the high-end experience of the restaurant and bar, making it the ideal spot for guests to unwind in style.
