The furnishings and lighting are carefully selected for the highest quality to create a warm atmosphere that enhances the interior wood panelling and materials to best effect. Even the night is not particularly dark in the mountains - the snow reflects the light of the moon and stars even at night. That's why you don't want to overload a mountain house with too much light. It's the tranquillity you're after. Too much light inside turns picture windows into hard, dark surfaces after dusk. On the other hand, if you have low light levels and few light sources, preferably low in the room, the night outside is not perceived as dark, but as beautiful and almost light.
