Chesa Studio/Working Brief
Services
Chesa Studio is an alpine real estate development and restoration practice rooted in the Engadin, now building and restoring country houses in Connecticut, the Hudson Valley, and New York. We work in the four to ten million range with developers, family offices, private homeowners, architects, and the occasional hotelier between New York, Litchfield County, Greenwich, the Engadin, Provence, and the Italian lakes. The six services below carry a single discipline across a Greenwich Shingle Style, a Salisbury Federal, an Engadin chasa, and a Lombard farmhouse: hand-troweled lime, fumed oak, fieldstone laid in lime mortar, unlacquered bronze, ceramic stoves, and a named workshop for every fixed material in the house.
