The Carter’s Road project is a stunning modern alpine lodge that perfectly balances luxury and natural elegance. Nestled in a breathtaking setting, the home celebrates dark, moody sophistication through a rich palette of timber, glass, steel, and stone, creating a seamless connection between architecture and environment.
At the heart of the design is the use of Marchand Luxury Oak Chocolate Aged boards. Each board is hand-scraped and individually textured, giving the flooring a bespoke, artisanal finish that adds depth, warmth, and character to every space. The oak’s deep chocolate tones pair beautifully with the bold materiality of glass walls, blackened steel detailing, and natural stone accents, creating an atmosphere that’s both dramatic and inviting.
This home is a true showcase of modern alpine luxury, designed for homeowners who wanted to bring together architectural form, tactile finishes, and effortless comfort. From the expansive open living spaces to the intimate, retreat-like bedrooms, every detail has been curated to evoke a sense of timeless elegance and craftsmanship.
