Set on a steep plateau on the shores of Lake Saint-Amour, Clos des Merises marks its private character from the outset. Freely composed and working on the formal archetype of the traditional house, the two white volumes become this deliberately austere canvas, on which the shadows cast by the deciduous and coniferous trees are projected. The H-shaped layout, somewhat off-set to encourage sunlight and the relationship between the interior areas and the enclosed terrace, carries the residence's main circulation routes at its heart; the transparency of this junction forces a relationship between the reception area and the domesticated landscape of the rear terrace.
A second entrance is located on the left, under the second-floor overhang. The independent entrance to the office cleverly separates the different uses of the residence. Whether it's to divide the toilet areas from the living areas, or the master bedroom from the areas reserved for guests, this hyphen highlights the natural qualities of the site, framing and reframing them to magnify their beauty. On the faces facing the lake, the facade cladding is of a different, perhaps more domestic nature, using cedar lath on all the projections and recesses forming the volumetric expression on the lake.
