An architect built it. Then he decided to stay.

Risshi Tandon is an architect who moved to Nive village to live slower and more sustainably. He set the chalets into the slope so every window looks out on a tree or a ridge. He and Mrs. Tandon still run the place themselves, and guests write about them by name.
