Nestled in the picturesque town of Knowlton, Canada, the Lakeside Cabin is a testament to modern design and a love for the outdoors. Designed by Atelier Schwimmer in 2019, this cabin is more than just a dwelling; it’s a symbol of commitment to leisure and camaraderie.
Situated on the banks of Lake Brome, the cabin’s design is centered around a concrete fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space for guests. The essence of the design is further enhanced by a vertical atrium that opens onto the lake, offering breathtaking views and a sense of unity with nature. The exterior, clad in a mix of charred and naturally oiled larch, adds a unique touch to the cabin, making it a standout addition to the classic 19th-century houses and modest cottages that dot the landscape of the Eastern Townships.
Designed by Onsite, Foley Ridge Cabin is a bedroom addition to an archetypal single-room dwelling. The project is located in a pristine natural landscape, accessible by a rugged dirt trail and situated on a steeply sloped clearing with a long view to Blue Ridge Mountains.
The Modular Unit is a small-scale, off-grid structure, designed to be recyclable, to allow a wide range of building uses and reduce environmental impact maximizing its site flexibility. It has been designed in 2019 by Teke Architects Office.
Mountain Shelter is a bivouac at high altitude, a few metres from summit Dormillouse (2908 mslm) on the border between Italy and France, in the upper Valle di Susa. It has been designed in 2019 by Michele Versaci.
