ALL OUR PROJECTS

Amevet

Change in stages

Here are a few essential steps in cottage interior design.

Assessing needs and objectives.
Study of the existing space and consideration of architectural and technical constraints.
Preliminary design (APS): a preliminary design, which may include layout plans, sketches, moodboards…
Adjustments, based on customer feedback, to achieve a final vision that meets customer expectations.
The preliminary design stage (APD) details the final adjustments. This can include the choice of materials, finishes, floor coverings, wall coverings, lighting, furniture and accessories.
Preparation of the documents needed to implement the project, such as working drawings, specifications, technical specifications, elevations and construction details. These documents serve as a reference for craftsmen and contractors.
What happens next depends on what the customer has entrusted us with. In the case of project management assistance (AMO), the mission continues until delivery and installation of all elements, in accordance with the plans.

The qualities we like to highlight:

We master and know how to work with and on all the main technical data: insulation, heating systems, structural studies, technical ducts, ventilation, technical screeds, technical knowledge of materials and equipment, fire safety regulations, persons with reduced mobility (PRM), SPS (Safety and Health Protection) coordination, building permit applications, prior declaration of work, etc.
Our interior designers have extensive experience of active listening and “co-construction” of projects with our customers. They excel in the rigorous yet convivial exchanges that help them understand their expectations, tastes and constraints. An essential step in establishing a clear vision of the project!

Chalet Furnishing Service

A style all your own and a unique ambience

Agence Amevet designs and furnishes cottages that reflect your personality, based on the style that most appeals to you.

“Traditional”, with “raw” elements, natural materials, characteristic architectural details such as exposed beams, small-paned windows and pitched roofs.
“Contemporary”, with clean lines, panoramic windows to maximize mountain views and avant-garde design touches.
“Prestige”, with top-of-the-range finishes, refined materials, bright, open spaces and elegant furnishings… inspired by the lifestyle of high-end resorts like Megève or Courchevel.
“Scandinavian”, guided by Nordic design, its minimalist aesthetic, its hygge philosophy…

In all styles and mixes of styles, we know how to adapt your project to the constraints and opportunities generally offered or imposed by chalets. Maximizing mountain views, managing thermal insulation, choosing aesthetic and appropriate materials, integrating elements of comfort and relaxation, installing storage rooms for sports equipment, or equipment dedicated to convivial recuperation such as a sauna or jaccuzi…

And let’s not forget the optimization of space, which must combine functionality and aesthetics, making the most of every square centimeter, because a chalet, like a resort apartment, generally has limited floor space.

FAQ

01.

How much does an interior designer charge?
- Remuneration can be based on a percentage of the overall budget. We also offer remuneration based on time spent, which we evaluate before embarking on the project. Time spent includes meetings with the customer, research, design, planning and coordination with other professionals, such as engineering consultants. Supervision of the work, if the agency is entrusted with project management assistance (AMO), is the subject of a detailed estimate. In the specific field of furniture and decorative objects, services are also invoiced on a fee basis, guaranteeing that you purchase the products at list price. In all cases, our contracts guarantee total transparency in terms of remuneration.
02.

Which wood to choose for a cottage interior?
- We use different types of wood, depending on the aesthetics and specific needs of the project. We also pay close attention to wood treatment and finishing to enhance durability and appearance. Spruce is an elegant wood, appreciated for its strength and fine grain. It can be used for wall cladding, ceilings and floors. Cedar, with its reddish-brown color and pleasant scent, is an aromatic, durable wood that is highly resistant to humidity, making it a suitable choice for mountain environments. Oak is noble, durable and timeless. It brings elegance and sophistication to furniture, doors, staircases... Walnut is a precious wood, rich in nuance. It is used in high-end design elements such as panelling, tables and cupboards. It adds a touch of luxury and sophistication to the interior of a prestigious chalet.
03.

How to decorate the interior of a chalet?
- Decorating a chalet is a delicate balance between tradition and modernity, authentic classic and contemporary. Avoid cluttering rooms with too much furniture or accessories. Let the space breathe, to enhance the beauty of the materials and textures used. Choose decorative objects that subtly evoke the mountain atmosphere, without ever overloading any space. In short, emphasize quality over quantity. Our advice will guide you.
04.

How to create a cottage atmosphere?
- The creation of a cottage atmosphere can also involve a house, an apartment or the renovation of an old farmhouse. In every case, there are essential elements that must be carefully considered: colors, materials and textiles, warm lighting, distinctive architectural elements (beams, fireplaces, floors), typical decorative objects...
