House on the Lake in Magog, Quebec, by Atelier Échelle reimagines the vernacular barn as a contemporary four volume residence for art collectors. Overlooking Lake Memphremagog, the 13,000 square foot home integrates cedar roofs, Danish brick, glass bridges and large span motorized glazing to frame sunset views. Art installations by Simon Hughes, a 1,200 bottle wine cellar and carefully selected materials designed to age over time position the project at the intersection of landscape, architecture and contemporary living.
