通过La Cadrée Perchée,L’Empreinte Design Architecture通过一个反射光线的住宅提供了与户外的持续互动,并框定了一个野生、恢复活力和鼓舞人心的环境。作为与自然共生的示范,这一成就反映了建筑对用户的福祉和心理健康的好处。

With La Cadrée Perchée, L’Empreinte Design Architecture offers constant interaction with the outdoors through a home that reflects light and frames a wild, rejuvenating, and inspiring environment. As a demonstration of symbiosis with nature, this achievement reflects the benefits of architecture on the well-being and mental health of users.

在魁北克Laurentians地区Morin-Heights的Lac Franc附近的高山上,在一片枫树林的中心,这个有8个房间、2100平方英尺的住宅是由L’Empreinte Design Architecture的创始人Pier-Olivier Lepage为其设计的。这位企业家的愿景是在日常工作中利用大自然的重要能量。

In the heart of a maple grove, high up in the mountains bordering Lac Franc in Morin-Heights, in the Laurentians region of Quebec, this 8-room, the 2,100-square-foot residence was created by and for Pier-Olivier Lepage, founder of L’Empreinte Design Architecture. The entrepreneur’s vision was to take advantage of the vital energy of nature on a daily basis.

丰富了森林的体验。La Cadrée Perchée以其丰富的透光性,让你从建筑的两边品味到场地的全景,由几个玻璃框架组成,栖息在山的一侧,面向树梢。它给人的印象是通向森林的顶端。自然通过彻底的视野被提出来,但也通过材料被提出来,无论是外部还是内部,木材作为一种装饰元素无处不在。

Enriching the experience of the forest. With its abundant fenestration, La Cadrée Perchée allows you to savor the panorama of the site from both sides of the building, comprised of several glass frames perched on the side of the mountain and facing the treetops. It gives the impression of leading to the top of the forest. Nature is put forward by the thorough view, but also through materials, both exterior and interior, where wood is omnipresent as a finishing element.

为了最大限度地提高东西方向的透明度,室内布局提供了一些解决方案,如凹陷在坑中的沙发,一个极简的低调厨房,以及在流通岛中分组的存储单元。整体的简单性突出了木材和景观作为装饰的主要组成部分。

To maximize transparency in the east-west orientation, the interior layout offers solutions such as a sofa recessed in a pit, a minimalist low-profile kitchen, and storage units grouped in circulation islands. The simplicity of the whole highlights the wood and the landscape as the main components of the decor.

为了改变林区的景色,房子通过不同层次的树木被设置在土地的斜坡上。”你有时会觉得自己是森林之王,而其他时候则要谦卑得多,”皮埃尔-奥利维尔-莱佩奇解释说,他从2021年9月起就住在这块土地上。这种朝向也让人享受到日出和日落美景等愉快的时刻。

In order to vary the views of the wooded area, the house was set up on the slope of the land through different strata of trees. “You sometimes feel like the king of the forest, and other times it’s far more humbling,” explains Pier-Olivier Lepage, who has lived on the property since September 2021. The orientation also allows for enjoyable moments such as sunrise and sunset views.

为了应对光疗的需要,设计的挑战之一是最大限度地发挥太阳的贡献,同时避免过热。因此,La Cadrée Perchée的形状受到散热器原理的启发,从而增加了其外墙和多个木质框架的扩散面。它们吸收热量并反射光线,这让人产生了房子里有阳光的错觉。

In response to the need for light therapy, one of the design challenges was to maximize the contribution of the sun, while avoiding overheating. The shape of La Cadrée Perchée was therefore inspired by the principle of a radiator, thus increasing the diffusion surface of its exterior walls and its multiple wooden frames. They absorb heat and reflect light, which gives the illusion of sunshine in the house.

私人户外空间。该项目见证了经济和工匠精神的解决方案,包括完全由安装毛条组成的天花板和由栅栏板制成的外墙。尽管它的表面积有限,但它也暗示了一个功能性的和欢快的空间。除其他外,客厅的设计灵感来自于日本的火炉,允许团体在整个晚上围着火炉、看电影或吃晚餐时享受最佳的舒适度。卧室则满足了用户享受一个有利于休息、工作或放松的私人空间的愿望。上述空间包括一张床、一张内置书桌和一个浴缸,所有这些都朝向俯瞰森林的窗墙。

Private outdoor space. The project bears witness to economical and artisanal solutions, including a ceiling entirely composed of mounting furring strips, and exterior cladding made of fence boards. And despite its restricted surface area, it also suggests a functional and convivial space. Among other things, the living room, inspired by Japanese kotatsu, allows groups to enjoy optimal comfort for an entire evening around a fire, over a movie, or while eating dinner. For its part, the bedroom responds to the desire of users to enjoy a private space conducive to rest, work, or relaxation. The aforementioned space includes a bed, a built-in desk, and a bathtub, all oriented towards a window wall overlooking the forest.

在住宅的前面和后面有两个安排在凹槽中的露台。在较热的月份,建筑的气候通过太阳能控制和自然通风来调节,同时不掩盖周围的动植物,突出了生活在露天环境中的感觉。其他属性也模糊了室内和室外的界限,包括完美匹配的木质天花板和墙壁的连续性,玻璃的中缝,以及融入雪地的白色地板。镂空饰面木材的原始外观和浮雕让人想起枫树皮的木质特征。温暖而细致的颜色就像它的叶子。混凝土地板经过漂白处理,以增加清晰度并简化整体色彩构成。

There are two terraces arranged in alcoves at the front and at the back of the residence. During the hotter months, the climate of the building is tempered by solar control and natural ventilation, without concealing the fauna and flora that surround it and accentuating the feeling of living in the open air. Other attributes also blur the boundaries between interior and exterior, including the continuity of perfectly matched wooden ceilings and walls, mullions of glass, and white floors that blend into the snow. The raw appearance and relief of the openwork finish wood recall the woody character of maple bark. The warm and nuanced color is like its leaves. The concrete floors have been bleached to increase clarity and simplify the overall color composition.
