    Taking advantage of the land

    A walk-out basement and a main floor of 702 sqaure foot, make up this optimized house. The main rooms are open and abundantly fenestrated, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding nature. 

    One of the important elements was the evolutionary side of this house: plan in advance the needs of the customers by creating a large kitchen with a pantry in the shape of a «u» juxtaposed to the latter, and integrating a door to the walk-out basement for their future catering and delivery service.

    This project with traditional lines revisited, is certified Novoclimat. The goal of this project was to create a house that would take advantage of the land that Aglaé and Yohan loved very much.

    The natural slope of the land allowed us to design a project that fits perfectly with its environment. In addition, by putting the carport behind the house, we would ensure passive solar. The house is located not far from St-Faustin-du-Lac-Carré and Mont-Tremblant and therefore enjoys municipal services but also all outdoor activities located in the region.
