House H by Chris Collaris

House H by Chris Collaris

Dutch architect Chris Collaris sourced light-grey stone called eramosa from a nearby quarry to build the linear House H in Canada's Great Lakes region, close to the US border.

Reclaimed wood wraps around the flat roofline and is also grey, as is the flooring of a large patio, to create a greyscale palette that contrasts with the property's grassy landscape. The monochrome palette continues inside the home with white walls and cabinetry, and black furniture.

La Barque Residence by ACDF

This lake house by Montreal architecture firm ACDF is nestled into a hillside, with a concrete base that supports a top volume clad in blackened timber that extends out to rest on pilotis.

Deep Cove House by D'Arcy Jones

Deep Cove House by D'Arcy Jones Architects

D'Arcy Jones Architects' Deep Cove House is notable in its contrasting front and rear facades. Its patio and garden open up to expansive ocean views, while its street-facing facade is closed off and windowless for maximum privacy.

The local studio integrated the house within a hilly site north of downtown Vancouver. The walls of its upper portion are slanted to help reduce glare and allow water to run off, including from its wrap-around windows.
