London’s Michelin-starred Hide is well known for its innovative, contemporary cuisine, but that isn’t what stood out most to one family. It was the restaurant’s sculptural staircase that captured their attention, becoming the design inspiration for their year-round chalet in the Swiss Alps. British interiors firm Portia Fox worked with the same craftspeople who created the original staircase to build a replica for the 30,000-square-foot home. And while it certainly serves as the focal point, it’s not the only standout detail in the property.
The nine-bedroom residence took almost four years to complete, and it seems to have been worth the wait. Along with the usual offerings, the home is outfitted with all sorts of fun add-ons. With multigenerational living in mind, the layout includes plenty of child-friendly spaces. Notably, three whimsical playrooms sit on different levels of the home, all connected by a custom-built spiral slide that the kids can use to get from floor to floor. Adults, meanwhile, have a different sort of playground: the massive spa. There’s a hot tub, sauna, steam room, mani/pedi stations, and a spirit shower with a juice bar. The indoor pool is just the cherry on top.

The spiral staircase is a replica of one at London’s Hide restaurant.

Taking advantage of the slopeside location, the pad is also equipped with a ski room, where the family can store all their gear and head directly to the trails. And on the lower floor, late-night hangs can happen in the home theater or the billiards lounge, which is centered around a double-sided fireplace. The moody space feels well-suited for a nightcap before heading off to bed.

When it comes time to retire, the upper floor is home to two primary suites, both with their own ensuite bathroom and dressing area. Exposed timber taps into the classic chalet vibe, while veined marble and bespoke floor patterns add a modern touch. Guest bedrooms are located on the lower floor, where friends and family have their own kitchen to whip up midnight snacks.

Children can hang out in three separate playrooms, all connected via a custom spiral slide.

The main kitchen is all sleek wooden cabinetry, with an eat-in banquette curved into the central island. A serving hatch connects to the back-of-house kitchen, allowing for easy meals when the family doesn’t feel like cooking. When entertaining, though, the dining room is a real showstopper: Hand-printed murals of Alpine mountains wrap around the space, and icicle-inspired lighting drips down from the ceiling. It’s a winter wonderland both inside and out.
