Before tackling the main residence, Vicky Charles transformed two guest buildings into light-filled, oak-lined hideaways layered with vintage furniture and bold finishes.

On a multi-acre mountainous site, dotted with lodgepole pine trees, Miller-Roodell Architects designed a 9,000-square-foot guest barn and separate 4,500-square-foot guest cabin to host the homeowners’ friends and family year-round. Careful to avoid the 'Cabin' stereotype, each one is self-sufficient with full-sized kitchens, fireplace-warmed living rooms, sporting-equipment storage, and hot tubs, but easily accessible from the future main house. Together, they house five bedrooms - some suites, some bunks - all with built-in flexibility.

We are proud to have worked with Vicky Charles and her team at Charles & Co for many years, on many high profile projects. Choosing our Heritage Collection Bed Linen for one of these Guesthouses ensured the fit with Vicky's palette which tends towards rich tones and a variety of textures atypical of a mountain abode. Bathrooms are tiled in statement zellige or upholstered in traditional-style patterned wallpapers. The cabin’s bespoke kitchen features a copper backsplash and countertop. Dark stone floors are covered in jute rugs. This material mix helps make a seamless transition between the contemporary and vintage furniture pieces that anchor each cosy room.
