Home design - large traditional front yard full sun home design idea in Montreal

The customer wanted a truly unique space that complimented the extensive use of natural stone in the architecture of their home. We used a natural limestone product that did just that. Some of the features we installed include a rough sawn cedar pergola that tied into the house and rests on two solid limestone pillars, thin veneer limestone spillways/fire features adjacent to the pool, planter boxes with down lighting to soften the feel of the area and provide lighting to the entire space, and a stone/block staircase leading from the front yard down to the walkout poolscape below.

The Chambord Residence was a typical worker’s duplex house in the heart of the patrimonial neighbourhood of the Plateau Mont-Royal. The initial intent of this residential renovation project was to annex a master bedroom that would have a view over the iconic Mount Royal, and at the same time, a rooftop terrace. The new addition’s architecture had to contrast with the existing building which stayed untouched. It consisted of a simple volume laid gently over the duplex. We recessed the facade of the new construction to keep the initial alignment of the street. The client’s love for natural materials and bright colors made it easy for us to choose copper as the siding finish for the extension. The idea of seeing his house change color and evolve through time and natural oxidation made it clear for him that it was the most interesting material. We chose a diamond shaped tile to cover the new add-on construction, as it refers to the vernacular false-mansard found in the city, and adds a texture that will make the copper age unevenly. Our goal was to create a contemporary jewel that celebrates the patrimonial gem it sits on. © Lorelei L'Affeter
