  • Customers are increasingly demanding when it comes to choosing their vacation accommodation. They are looking for more comfort and services, more functional and better-equipped apartments, andup-to-date decoration.

  • If your apartment is more than 10 years old, a little "freshening up" is certainly essential, and will not only help you to rent it better, but also to feel more comfortable during your stay in Les Orres.

A renovated, well-equipped and well-decorated apartment will be a priority for tenants, and will be more respected by them.

Mountain renovation inspiration

3 authentic and contemporary atmospheres

"Scandinavian purity" A pure, warm and authentic ambience

Image

Materials are natural (light wood, wool, felt, animal skin), with light hues (white, shades of gray, beiges, pastels). Prints are often inspired by nature.

This ambiance can easily be used for a "basic" renovation.

Materials, furnishings and decor can be sourced from major DIY and interior design chains.

"The warmth of authenticity" Traditional mountain atmosphere brought up to date

Image

Materials are "old-fashioned" for greater authenticity (aged wood, rough sawn, old chalet ambiance)

The materials are natural (linen, cotton and felted wool) and the shades are warm, echoing the color codes of the mountains (medium/dark grays, wood and white)

This ambience corresponds to a medium-to-high renovation budget, depending on how authentic you want your renovation to be.

"The audacity of made-to-measure" Ingenuity and space optimization

Image

Decoration that's more responsible, more ecological, using simple, inexpensive recycled or sourced materials like OSB or birch plywood. Reference to the Tiny-house movement.

We can also take a more conventional, high-end approach to made-to-measure, using more "mountain" woods like softwoods (pine, larch, spruce and Douglas fir) or more noble woods like oak.

FOREWORD/APRES

Renovation of a studio in the "L'Oustal" residence

Les Orres 1650

I recently invested in this 24 m2 studio, to both enjoy it and rent it out.

I wanted it to become a cozy vacation spot where you feel good, in harmony with the natural environment and the brightness. To improve functionality, we optimized space and storage.

I called on the services of an interior decorator, who opted for home staging to keep the budget reasonable, with judicious ideas. A craftsman carried out the work with professionalism.

For the decorating touch, I chose to limit the use of colors and favor natural materials.
