House of the Week 050: the Cube (Lac Superieur)



Located near the ski hills of Mont Tremblant in Quebec, Canada this vacation home - dubbed the Cube by locals for its composition of intersecting volumes, was designed by architects Saucier + Perrotte in 2004. The volumes hold the three functional areas, sleeping on the top, middle for entry and living and the lowest for play.

    That Saucier + Perrotte website is unlike any I've seen - it's like navigating through a movie...
