Perchée Residence / Matière Première Architecture

Set on a maple-wooded site, the land slopes gently toward a valley where a river traces its course at the base of the terrain. It is within this natural movement of the ground that Perchée takes shape—a house that favors restraint over imprint, and whose siting strategy seeks, above all, to limit clearing in order to preserve the site's most valuable quality: the feeling of being truly immersed among the trees.

Virgin Vineyard House / LAMAS Architecture

Situated between an old logging road and a working hillside vineyard, the Virgin Vineyard House derives its name from a farm whose ruins once stood above the site. The client was interested in building a new residence on the land, with minimal disturbance to the vineyard, that would capture views overlooking Lake Massawippi in Quebec's Eastern Townships. The new building will house the client and provide the ability for her to age in place, as well as to accommodate her daughter’s growing family.

Townships Farmhouse / LAMAS

An hour and a half east of Montreal the landscape begins to rise into rolling farmland punctuated by lakes and small mountains. Just before you reach Vermont, the town of North Hatley sits at the unlikely meeting point of the north-eastern United States and Quebec. Settled by the British Loyalists who led Connecticut during the war of independence, the farms around the town of North Hatley are as much connected to the culture of the early American colonies as they are to the Quebecois barns of the seigneuries.

At our first meeting, the clients spoke of simplicity and an open view of the woods. They wanted a house that "looks like a house." They preferred a more traditional style, reminiscent of East Coast homes by the sea, standing like cedar-shingled "lighthouses," standing strong against the storms. These houses seem to rise up to view the horizon. From the beginning, we could see that they were open to contemporaneity and boldness, even though they wished to retain the traditional country style of North Hatley's early homes. This duality between the traditional and the modern was our guide throughout the design.
