The residence is nestled into the mountainside, like a waterfall, with its levels unfolding to follow the natural contours of the land.
A path naturally traced by the slope around the site leads to the property and provides two access points. The first access point is at the level of the upper floor and leads to the main entrance, which is covered by a carport. The second access point discreetly winds through the woods to a secondary entrance below.
Inside, the common areas share an open space, all of which enjoy the splendid landscape of the Eastern Townships. A majestic, double-sided fireplace divides the living area, bringing an intimate character to the dining room, which has windows on all sides. On the same floor, an outdoor terrace extends the common area and offers spaces for relaxation and contemplation.
The residence's architecture is both contemporary and classic due to the symmetry of its facades. A-shaped and triangular forms, signature features of the house, are found throughout to maximize vistas and sunlight. For instance, a triangular window above the kitchen allows zenithal light to flood the living area.
Anchored solidly to the site by massive columns, the residence boasts airy, luminous interior spaces.
