Customized Ski Retreat
Customized Ski Retreat
New Hampshire Mountains
Reider + Co was brought in at the beginning of this new construction project to help our clients customize and personalize a spec home. As specialists in space planning, we adapted the original floor plans to better suit how the family wanted to use the home. We selected all the materials and finishes in the kitchen, bathrooms, and throughout the house.
The heart of the home is the double-story great room featuring a cathedral ceiling. We made the fireplace wall the focal point by surrounding the fireplace with a stone mantel and extending wood slat cladding up to the ceiling. These natural and tactile materials add a cozy warmth to the room. A grouping of oversize light fixtures draws the eye up to highlight the room’s height. The natural theme extends to the color palette, built around rich, earthy jewel tones–mossy greens, deep plums, and mustard tones paired with saturated teals.
While the interior design is visually inviting, the home also needed to accommodate the comings and goings of five skiers and their equipment, plus two dogs. So the well-thought-out mudroom has custom lockers that incorporate a peg system for holding clothes and gear.
After a day of skiing, the family can retreat to the basement level, which features several specialty leisure spaces: a game room, bunk room, golf simulator, and media space.
