Text description provided by the architects. Passive House and LEED Platinum-certified the Saltbox House is only the third certified passive building in Quebec. Built on the south side of Mont Gale in Bromont, the single-family house sits in a meadow, on the edge of the forest. With its "L" shaped plan combining two types of roof slopes, the house borrows its vernacular silhouette from the architectural vocabulary of 17th-century Saltbox-type rural buildings, still clearly visible in the Eastern Townships countryside.
