The Ellis Mid Century Bookshelf is a handcrafted storage piece designed to bring warmth, structure, and practical organization into modern interiors. Built from 100% solid pine wood with a strong metal frame, it combines natural wood texture with a clean architectural silhouette. Its open shelf design provides generous space for books, plants, framed photos, ceramics, office supplies, and decorative objects. The contrast between solid pine shelves and the slim metal frame gives Ellis a balanced look that works well in living rooms, home offices, bedrooms, entryways, and studio spaces. Available in multiple widths and two height options, Ellis can adapt to both compact rooms and wider feature walls. The 5-shelf and 6-shelf configurations make it useful for different storage needs while keeping the overall design light, open, and visually organized. With its mid-century modern character, natural wood grain, water-resistant matte finish, and easy assembly structure, Ellis is designed as both a functional bookcase and a stylish display piece for everyday interiors.

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
