Gstaad St Moritz Luxury Interior Designer

Gstaad and St Moritz occupy the summit of Alpine luxury residential design — two small Swiss villages that have hosted the world's most powerful and celebrated individuals for over a century, and whose chalets represent the most coveted seasonal addresses on earth. Gstaad's intimate village character and English-speaking international community, St Moritz's dramatic Engadine Valley setting and the Cresta Run legacy — each has a distinct personality, but both share the same fundamental luxury: the pure pleasure of the Swiss Alps in winter, experienced within a chalet of extraordinary design quality.

The luxury chalet is one of the most demanding design typologies in the ultra-luxury repertoire: the challenge of creating spaces that are both casually comfortable for après-ski and formally magnificent for evening entertaining; that honor the vernacular Alpine building tradition of handcrafted timber construction and natural stone while meeting the expectations of clients whose standards are set by the finest hotels and private residences in the world; and that integrate the most advanced technology and wellness infrastructure within an environment that must feel organic, warm, and irreducibly Alpine.

Beverly Hills Luxury Interiors brings Kenneth Bordewick to Gstaad and St Moritz with a chalet design practice shaped by years of designing for the international social community that gathers in the Swiss Alps each winter. Kenneth's firsthand familiarity with the specific culture of these villages — the Palace Hotel, the Corviglia Mountain Club, the Eagle Club — and his deep knowledge of the Alpine design tradition make him the ideal designer for the most ambitious chalet commissions in either resort.

The BHLI Alpine chalet is defined by its authenticity: reclaimed Alp wood from ancient barns and farmhouses, handcrafted by Swiss joinery workshops into paneling, beams, and furniture of extraordinary character; natural stone from local quarries; handmade ceramic stoves (Kachelofen) that are both functional heating systems and sculptural centerpieces; bespoke textiles in natural wool, cashmere, and alpine felt; and private wellness environments — spa, steam room, home theater, wine cellar — integrated with the same craft quality as every other element of the chalet.
