Ave Duchastel Residence Design Project in Montréal

The original architecture, inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, has been respectfully transformed and expanded, harmonizing the building with the surrounding forest’s natural beauty. A purpose-built Zen garden further enhances the sense of serenity and connection with nature.

Natural materials such as oak, walnut, stone, marble, and wood treated with the Shou Sugi Ban technique continue seamlessly throughout the interiors.

The kitchen, like most rooms in the house, was designed with large windows that flood the space with natural light.

The warm tones of CEA’s Bronze satin finish, from the INNOVO collection, integrate with the oak flooring and walnut cabinetry, creating a harmonious balance between elegance and naturalness.

Integration with Nature and Architectural Excellence

The renovation project combines respect for its context with contemporary design elements, resulting in a residence that embodies both integration with nature and architectural excellence.

In the bathrooms, marble and wood reaffirm their timeless elegance: diffused light permeates the space, creating a sense of calm and airiness. For this delicately nuanced environment, Atelier Chardonnat selected GIOTTO taps in a stainless-steel satin finish.
