The chalet of today is a far cry from the original herds - man's hut. Its triumphant ascent to elegant mountain mansion, frequently used as a holiday getaway by the societal elite, began in the 19th century. Its allure today is unbroken. As a place of relaxation and retreat from the day-to-day, chalets are being built in mountainous regions around the world. The chalet derives its charm from the combination of the architectural and the surrounding nature. Instead of sim - ply fitting into the landscape by necessity, the dwellings draw it in. In this way a unique formal language emerges.
