Tyrolean Ski House living room design by Kathy Best Design
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 04, 2015
Interior designer Kathy Geissler, Best of Kathy Best Design, is thrilled to have her elegant Alpine-style ski escape featured on the cover of esteemed lifestyle publication Gentry Home Magazine. The stunning three-story home, built by award-winning architects at John Malick & Associates, is a true mountain masterpiece and one of Kathy’s most prized projects. Kathy created the elegant abode for a family of five after her longtime clients said that they were ready to build a ski house inspired by the Tyrolean style winter homes they had seen while abroad in Austria.
Utilizing traditional materials such as stone, stucco, shingles, well-crafted woodwork, and copper-clad windows, the elegant ski abode’s intricate exterior detailing clearly reflects its Austrian aesthetic. The photographs that grace Gentry’s glossy pages display the designer’s ability to balance antique Tyrolean-inspired elements with modern accents. The article delves into Kathy’s masterfully crafted design details, such as how she custom designed a one-of-a-kind floral leitmotif to use throughout the home. With its bespoke details and Old-World appeal, the designer is proud to showcase a family ski home tailored to perfection.
