Pointe-aux-Loups

Isles de la Madeleine, Quebec

Often simply referred to as Les Iles, the famous Magdalen Islands are a remote and small archipelago out in the open seas of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. This project is located in the small Acadian community Pointe-aux-Loups, a town of 50 houses completely surrounded by sand dunes.

The small house is designed to capture the incredibly expansive views and provide spaces for enjoyment with friends and family. Windows at high level will make otherwise intimate spaces feel generous, and allow enjoyment of the many colours of the changing skies as well as the stars at night.
