Living Better
Set in harmony with the topography of Stoneham-Tewkesbury, this residence unfolds across stepped volumes that follow the natural slope and frame views toward the mountain. Its luminous architecture and wood materiality express a sensitive dialogue between privacy, landscape, and quality of living.
A Site Plan in Dialogue with the Landscape
Within the mountainous landscape of Stoneham-Tewkesbury stands this residence designed by STGM. Precisely positioned on a sloping site, the house opens widely to the south to capture sunlight and offer unobstructed views of the surrounding relief.
To the north and east, generous openings frame the forest and establish a calm, serene atmosphere. The relationship between interior and exterior becomes natural—almost intuitive.
An Architecture that Follows the Topography
The project was developed with deep respect for the site. The volumes unfold in stepped levels, following the topography rather than imposing themselves upon it.
This composition creates terraces and balconies formed by the roofs of the level below. The ensemble integrates quietly into the landscape, asserting a balance between groundedness and lightness.
A Structured and Fluid Spatial Organization
The lower level, which houses the garage and mechanical spaces, forms a discreet base upon which the main wooden volumes rest.
One level above, the entrance provides access to the children’s bedrooms as well as to a living room that opens onto the site. The hall, crossed by a bridge and animated by a double-height space, organizes both vertical and horizontal circulation.
It leads to the main living areas on the upper floor as well as to the primary bedroom, oriented toward the mountain.
Carefully Composed Paths and Perspectives
Movement through the house was carefully designed to gradually reveal its atmospheres. Strategic openings offer varied views of the landscape, while variations in volume clearly distinguish the different functions.
The main volume, which houses the kitchen and dining room, appears to extend toward the horizon. In contrast, the primary bedroom anchors itself to the ground, conceived as a pavilion connected by the bridge.
Privacy and Openness
Views and the search for privacy guided the composition of the façades. To the west, in anticipation of future developments, the openings remain more discreet. To the north and east, the forest becomes the primary outlook, reinforcing the sense of immersion in nature.
The choice of materials extends this relationship with the territory. A vertically installed wood cladding, expressed in both light and dark tones, evokes tree trunks emerging from the snow. The material thus contributes to the building’s integration into its environment with coherence and restraint.
