A chalet is a style of house that’s mainly found in the Swiss Alps. Most chalets are made of wood and have a very wide, heavy roof that slopes down. Chalet style is a direction in interior design and architecture that is characterized by the atmosphere of alpine mountain houses, from which this style originates. At first, the style was the embodiment of the lifestyle of Alpine shepherds, who built reliable and warm mountain homes. Such spaces are usually very cozy, and chalet living rooms are really special, as they are spacious, warm and so inviting!
