The m.o.r.e. CLT Cabin is more than just a home; it is a model of how architecture can engage responsibly with the environment, challenging conventional notions of cottage living while promoting sustainability and respect for nature.
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.
The design objective was to bring the 110-year-old dwelling up to contemporary standards by adding a three-story rear addition, improving the overall layout, and updating the interior finishes.
Danforth Addition – The existing front gable was enlarged to provide a small study with a triangular window that fills the front third floor facade
Modern additions bookend the front and back of this existing two storey house providing a striking contrast with the original 1960’s design. The front addition puts a modern face on an existing integrated garage and encloses a concrete porch to add more interior floor space on the main floor.
The residents of this grand house in the Withrow Park area of Toronto were looking to replace their existing rear addition that was in a poor state of repair.
The metamorphosis of this Toronto-area bungalow was driven by the desire to increase the usability of existing space and a deep respect for the energy embodied in existing materials.
