Nestled in Terrebonne, Québec, this riverside home was designed to integrate seamlessly with its long, narrow plot—a remnant of old agricultural land—while making the most of the breathtaking view of the Mille-Îles River. Given the proximity of neighboring houses, the design prioritizes privacy and openness, ensuring unobstructed views of the river while shielding side perspectives. The result is a square, single-story structure, framed by concrete walls on the sides and fully open to the water. Rising above, the master suite introduces a vertical element to the composition.

Born from an extreme transformation of a typical 90’s bungalow, the “Maison Terrebonne” is located on a vast wooded plot of land. Although certainly contemporary, the new residence is built on the same foundations as the original house while preserving one of its principal characteristics; split levels. This principle is at the very heart of this building’s new architecture. This thorough building overhaul, in combination with a larger upstairs, was designed in order to meet the needs of a person living alone. Despite a small 1500 square foot living space, the residence offers vast open rooms with an abundance of natural lighting.
