This modern, minimalist home was designed to maximize the space available inside. This is a very ecological and fundamental aspect of the project: using a minimum of space to meet a maximum of needs. The location of the house on the plot and its orientation to the sun allow plenty of natural light to enter the house. There is no basement, and the house is built on a concrete slab, which lent itself well to the flat host site.

Designed by its owner, a professional architect, Maison Prévost is a two-storey family home built on a slab foundation. Inspired by traditional Québec farmhouses, it blends seamlessly into its semi-rural surroundings. The layout includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open-concept living area, a gym/playroom, and a carport with integrated storage. Comfort is ensured through a radiant concrete slab and an EPA-certified wood stove. The interior and exterior design embrace soft tones and natural materials, featuring polished concrete floors, Eastern white cedar cladding, and a calming palette of whites and light woods throughout the home.

Tucked away deep in the woods, this pretty Scandinavian-style chalet offers its owners an escape from city life. Designed in a rectangular shape to fit in well with the steep terrain, it hoasts 1,800 sq.ft. on two floors, with a large open-plan living area on the first floor and three bedrooms on the garden level. The abundantly windowed south-facing facade offers spectacular views of Lac William and the surrounding mountains. The steel roof and colored door energize the house’s clean lines.

This chalet was designed for an active family. The house has two floors. On the first floor, there’s an open-plan kitchen, living room and dining room, plus a powder room and master suite. The garden level features two bedrooms, a full bathroom and the laundry room. The garage has been converted into an entertainment and training room.

Erected on a mountaintop, this contemporary home features a two-tone wood exterior. The windows are designed to maximize views ofnature, light and solar gain. Despite its small footprint, it features two bedrooms, two bathrooms and an open-plan layout incorporating kitchen, living room and dining room.

This exceptionally well-situated chalet was built on the exact same site as the former three-season summer house, which had fallen into disrepair. This acquired right enabled the owner to build very close to Lac Raymond and the Petit Train du Nord bike path. A foundation specially adapted to the proximity of the water table was built. Despite its limited footprint, this cottage still boasts 2,130 sq. ft. over three floors. There are three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an open-plan kitchen, living room and dining room.

This construction on a radiant slab features optimal solar orientation. Large patio doors eight feet wide by nine feet high encircle the first floor, providing plenty of natural light. Floors on the first floor are polished concrete and those upstairs are wood. The upstairs spaces are versatile and can be used as a gym or guest room.

Affectionately called Le nid (the nest) by its owner, this house is perched on the mountain. Its floor-to-ceiling all-aluminum windows offer solar gain and a breathtaking view of Lac Mitchell. The building was clad in white cedar exterior siding with a play of senses and original metal moldings. The number of functional features in relation to its reduced footprint is impressive.

The ant the grasshopper can enjoy the beautiful Laurentian region in this chalet. As the host site is very steep, the house was designed with a garden level. The passive solar design ensures warmth and luminosity on both floors of the house. A gas fireplace in the open-plan first floor provides quick and easy supplementary heating.
