ARCHITECTS PROJECTS
FLUID CONNECTIONS WITH THE NATURAL SETTING OF BROME LAKE
Muuk Architecture , in collaboration avec Adurra Doors & Windows
This house , designed by Muuk Architecture , is located on an enchanting site on the edge of Brome Lake in southern Quebec . Built-in place of an old chalet on the tip of Cedar Bay , the clean and sober lines of the new residence highlight the surrounding nature . With openings onto the lake at the essence of the project , and being its initial inspiration , the architects chose Adurra products for the framing of the spectacular discoveries .
CLEARING ON THE HORIZON
The terrain slopes gently towards the lake , presenting numerous challenges , and accommodates a volumetry deployed according to the specific topography situated inside of the margins , and outside of the wetlands and riparian protection strips . The ground floor slab unfolds beneath the drop . Respecting the majestic views , a few steps separate the entrance from the living areas , as well as the dining room from the living room , thus allowing for perfectly unobstructed views of the horizon from each zone of the house .
The living room , dining room , and kitchen are organized on the ground floor , while the more intimate bedroom areas are located upstairs . A transparent office on the upper level is strategically placed at the heart of the house , offering a view of the lake and the central walkway overlooking the main entrance . In addition , a stand-alone garage studio can accommodate guests on its upper level , with space to store a boat on the ground floor .
