Here, colour is restrained yet rich. There are moments of ochre, rust, olive and plum, while diffused lighting further adds to the intimate spaces. Textiles were a jumping-off point, chosen not just for the way each fabric looks but the way it behaves – how it catches the light, drapes and wears over time. The architectural envelope is modern, yet each element within is deeply comfortable.
The interiors complement the residence’s framework without competing with it, and each choice was made to handle wet gear, boots, high traffic and seasonal extremes, with intentional programming, scale and circulation also in mind. As with any mountain home, it came with its own unique challenges, but Perera saw these as a guide rather than a setback, bringing clarity to every style decision. The approach also sought to avoid cliché without losing the emotional comfort people seek in a mountain refuge.
