The Dyptique house, designed by Matière Première Architecture, is nestled in Québec’s Eastern Townships. Completed in 2022, this home offers stunning views over the surrounding landscape, with a layout designed to incorporate the client’s love for spa atmospheres and aquatic activities.
Perched on a steeply sloping site at the edge of a fjord in Saguenay, Canada, Sur Le Ruisseau house was designed by local studio Matière Première Architecture in 2019 as a retreat from everyday life. The minimalist interiors are warmed with natural materials including a full-length red oak bookshelf, which extends throughout the home and doubles as a light fixture.
Introducing Chalet_A, an exquisitely renovated 3-seasons beach house located in Estrie, Canada near Montréal. Originally an A-frame cottage built in the 1950s, Matière Première Architecture and its construction company, Nu Drom, were tasked with bringing this historic structure into the 21st century.
Described as a cozy, intimate experience, the design embraces lighter tones of white and sage, along with casual furnishings, to create a relaxed atmosphere. Local, sustainable materials were used to promote controlled aging of the cabin, while an ecological approach was taken to protect the natural landscape.
