L'OBSERVATOIRE | Architect's residence rooted in La Malbaie

Resolutely contemporary in style, the architecture, achievable thanks to the BONE Structure construction system, integrates perfectly with the surrounding nature. The Observatory is like the forest that surrounds it. It is deeply rooted in the ground and rises to the top of the trees. Wooden exterior cladding echoes the interior of the house as a natural extension. Small nods to the BONE Structure steel structure were highlighted to recall the solidity and exceptional originality offered by this rental chalet. The building is made up of superimposed blocks isolating living areas from private areas. All rooms have views and plenty of natural light. Maybe you'll see a plump porcupine frolicking. The unparalleled windows on the upper floor act like a pair of giant glasses that are constantly plugged in on the river, boats, birds, sky, stars, and trees. This open concept living space, where white predominates, extends outside onto a magnificent terrace surrounded by a glass railing. An atmosphere of lightness, fluidity and intimacy reigns there. Time no longer has control. The materials used; wood, concrete, steel, quartz, glass add a touch of luxury that makes renting this chalet an experience to be repeated. To see without being seen, the Charlevoix Observatory 🙌🏼
