Chesa Studio/Inspiration Atlas
Inspiration Atlas
Working lanes the studio uses when a project is being briefed. Alpine interiors, the Italian villa, the Provencal bastide, Connecticut domesticity, materials vocabulary, collected furniture, metal and fire, chateau and salon. Each lane carries the workshops we trust, the regional precedents we measure ourselves against, and the maintenance the owner will live with. The method is fixed: local Chesa photographs first, named precedents second, prose attribution only. When we cite Ruch in Zuoz, Festen at Hotel du Couvent, Peregalli in Lombardy, Yovanovitch in Provence, or Schafer on the Connecticut coast, we cite them in the text and let our own rooms carry the picture. Call 917.502.9236 to walk a brief through the lanes that fit your house.
