The De La Canardière residence was designed to enable a sister and brother to meet as a family on special occasions and to unwind in contact with nature. This project sprouted along the shores of a lake up in the Laurentians in a wooded area with a significantly consistent slope.
The Chalet Potton consists of the blending of four cubic areas around a central space through which the site can be crossed from the arrival level to the lowest level leading to the lake. The cedar and spruce wood coverings distinguish each of the areas from the composition.
Juliette apartment is on the third floor in the attic of a building from Plateau Mont Royal, Montreal, Canada, and it was remodeled in 2014 by the architect Laurent McComber. Built in 1880, this old building had a roof made of thick layers of tar and gravel.
