But once indoors the rustic charm has made way for a resolutely contemporary interior design, austere and restrained or timeless and modern. Photographer Jo Pauwels spent the last winter at the sophisticated ski resorts in search of a few contemporary pearls of interior architecture: inspiring examples for anyone wanting to design a mountain chalet in a contemporary vein.
