chalet style
Mountain cabin aesthetic
Chalet style describes architecture inspired by Alpine wooden houses—typically featuring a steeply pitched roof with wide overhanging eaves, exposed timber framing, and decorative woodwork.
The style evokes Swiss mountain chalets and appears in ski resorts, vacation homes, and fondue restaurants: The lodge was built in chalet style with carved balconies and a stone fireplace.
