An Artist. A House. A space of life and creation, a safe place, a place of inspiration. Moulded by the strong and multifaceted personality of its inhabitants, the Matterhorn Artist’s House is itself a work of art.
Former home of Master Gabriele Maquignaz, this splendid attic museum is a reflection of the inspiration and artistic genius of those who occupied and designed the spaces.
Here art and life are irremediably blended together.
The works of art and original furnishing accessories are mixed with elegant fabrics and fine materials, creating a living, exciting space where everything is an integral part of a cohesive and evocative whole. In the background, Art in Art, appears a unique, extraordinary view.
The majesty of the mountains and the breathtaking Matterhorn’s majesty burst out from the glass walls surrounding the attic.
Conceived by the master Maquignaz, these windows overlooking the divine art of Nature create an original metaartistic effect, a catalytic mirror of new energy and a constant source of inspiration.
Up here, living in art and for art, observing himself and the world, Master Gabriele Maquignaz has realized innovative artistic visions and transcended the concept of space, overcoming it, perpetuating it. Here, beyond the ordinary, begins your vacation for eyes and mind.

MAGIC BOX ROOM
Double room.
The secret of this small room lies in the clever architectural play of spaces.
The environment is developed vertically in an fun interlocking of overlapping cavities of different sizes, linked together by wooden ladders perfectly integrated into the volumes.
It creates a dynamic effect that in an optical crescendo passes from the first single bed, to the second arranged in the corner.
Climbing further, in a metaphorical climb, the last recess, guardian of the significant Work Silver bedheads, bedspreads and colourful cushions brighten up the room.

the bathroom
In this area there is a second, large bathroom with wall-mounted shower.
Here too, the attention to detail and personal style are transformed into an opportunity to give space to creativity: wood, ceramic, steel and resin blend harmoniously
the loft
Walking along the helicoidal wooden staircase, wisely illuminated with warm light led step markers, you reach the magnificent penthouse. Here the beauty is dazzling.
The magnificence of the outdoor natural environment is projected and propagated throughout the area. The atmosphere is therefore quickly created.
The total visual immersion seems almost to completely break down the boundary between exterior and interior.
Unique is the amount of light that enters through the wall windows that on cold winter nights give the magical spectacle of snow falling.
This is definitely the best place to look for peace, balance.
In the center of the area dominates the large fabric sofa crowned by the pyramid dormer, the highlight of this environment.
At the first light of dawn, when the curtains covering the windows obscure the attic, the light is centrally located, creating a striking optical effect.
A true jewel in the crown is the color palette used for the furnishings.
The design fireplace is completed by a mega-screen TV and an alabaster desk.
Here the inspiration and peace of the Master. Here the intuition, the creation of many important works. The space contains paintings, ceramics, sculptures.
the kitchen
The kitchen is also the result of a meticulous organization of spaces. Self-contained, it loses its multifunctional connotation and is collected modestly, it does not mix with the whole.
Arranged on three sides, almost melting into the wooden walls, it is complete with all accessories: hob, microwave oven, ventilated oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, coffee maker, toaster, dishes.
Next to the kitchen there is a large marble table with velvet chairs.
On request dedicated chef service.
