Lafond Desjardins Dental Laboratory by ACDF Architecture demonstrates a sensitive and refined approach to industrial building design
In Laval, Quebec, ACDF Architecture proudly presents the Lafond Desjardins dental laboratory, an industrial building that reflects the company’s vision while marrying artisanal work with advanced technology.

Adrien Williams
The laboratory is located in a prominent location on Industriel Blvd, a major artery in Laval’s industrial district. The form of the building comprises a series of volumetric extractions clad with highly textured, antique-finish black bricks. This contrasts sharply with the white screen-printed glass that at night glows thanks to a... Más

Saltbox Passive House celebrates the rural building vernacular of Quebec’s Eastern Townships
In the Eastern Townships of Quebec, the Saltbox Passive House by L’Abri is a 3100 square foot single-family home built on three levels. With a design that is inspired by the region’s architectural heritage, the home has also achieved LEED Platinum and PHIUS 2018+ certification. It is now the third house to achieve passive house certification in Quebec and shows that passive house standards can be achieved while being expressive of a region’s building vernacular.
Raphaël Thibodeau
The form of the house borrows from the vocabulary of the rural Saltbox-type buildings that emerged in 17th century New England and can still be found in the countryside of the Eastern Townships. Featuring a gable roof on the main... Más

Two wooden blocks gently harmonize with their lakeside surroundings
On a rocky outcrop overlooking Lake Memphremagog, Quebec, two blocks of wood gently harmonize with their surroundings. The two rectangular volumes, positioned one atop the other, form the volume of the house by YH2_Yiacouvakis Hamelin Architectes.
Maxime Brouillet
The lower volume acts as a plateau, straddling a natural gully that accommodates runoff from heavy rains. The upper volume, which appears to float above, is a solid looking white cedar clad volume with pierced vertical openings that contrast with the expansive windows of the lower ground level volume.
Maxime Brouillet
The upper block rest on the lower, but it is offset, hovering the lower volume on two side and thus enabling the provision of sheltered outdoor sp... Más

Contemporary Quebec home inspired by the spectacular Charlevoix region
Honest and minimalist by design, Le Littoral is a contemporary residence that draws inspiration from its exceptional natural setting. The home was designed by Architecture49 throughout all phases of design and construction.
Stéphane Brügger
In additional to majestic views of the St Lawrence River, the mountains of Hautes Gorges and La Malbaie Bay, the region combines historic buildings with resolutely contemporary architecture. Le Littoral responds to its context by deconstructing and reworking the silhouette of the region’s farm buildings, thus discreetly inserting itself into its surroundings.

Sleek and functional in appearance, the house integrates a wide range of fac... Más

Sensitively sited MTR House becomes a backdrop to a rocky landscape
Located on Quebec’s Lac Tremblant, house MTR by Alain Carle Architecte is situated on steep terrain with rocky cliffs. A large flat rock cap on the site serves as a type of natural balcony over the lake and also serves as ‘Level 0’ for the house. This careful siting allows for great views and draws in the monumentality of the natural surroundings.
Félix Michaud
The house follows the linear nature of the stone mass. Simple shapes, volumes and repetitive composition reinforce the horizontal appearance of the site from the shore and emphasize the rock cap’s mineral texture. Architecture becomes a backdrop to the main rock.
