House on the Lake: Contemporary Barn Living
House on the Lake sits on the west banks of Lake Memphremagog in Magog, Canada, where Atelier Échelle pairs contemporary rigor with rural memory. The house translates the archetypal Quebec barn into a six-bedroom lakefront residence for an art-collecting couple. Four related volumes create distinct realms for summer, winter, living, and guests, turning the waterfront site into a seasonal sequence of terraces, galleries, and intimate rooms for family and friends.
