100% Wooden House
Montlouis-sur-Loire, France
« a housing prototype composed exclusively of wood »
The project questions the flexibility and the usage of wood; it aims to modify the traditional codes of individual housing. The building is a prototype dwelling, which feeds on research, experiments and discoveries made over time. In a perpetual evolution, the house is part of an educative promenade organized in the park of the Bourdaisière Castle (France).
The design process was based on confronting a search for spatial qualities of the house that would change our idea of a living space and an exploration of wooden construction systems.
Client: Château De La Bourdaisière - France Bois Forêt - Caisse Des Dépôts
Location: Montlouis-Sur-Loire, France
Status: Build
Budget: €110.000 HT
Area: 55 M²
Team: Matthieu Boustany, Benoist Desfonds, Peeraya Suphasidh
Collaborators: Site Architect : Isabelle Poulain Architecte
Contractor: Boussiquet + Piveteau (CLT) + Pavatex (Insulation) + L’André (Sawmill)
Photographer: Atelier Vincent Hecht
Year: 2017-2020
Program: Individual House
By wrapping the programs around a central core, we generated a generous and continuous volume. The interior topography gives a hierarchy to the different usage: standing in the kitchen to face the view; seating on the window height in the living room; a slope as a sofa; the room on the higher level to guarantee its privacy while generating a covered terrace below it. Every volumetric move creates a new opportunity.
The project brings together technical slinkons that links the origins of construction to today’s high-tech industry. We formalize the ambition to reconnect the inhabitant with their built environment.
