Prince Philip Residence by Thellend Fortin Architectes

Thellend   Fortin Architectes have completed the expansion of a single-storey residence in Montreal, Canada, that was originally built in the 1960s. The pale-hued textures and materials enhance the spacious aspect of the rooms. This mineral setting marries perfectly with the impressive canopy of mature maple trees that offer shade to this oasis at the heart of the city. The interior comprises open adjoining living spaces bathed in natural light. Clad in anthracite-coloured concrete panels, the cantilevered extension reflects in the St. The extension takes advantage of the site’s unique topography, overlooking the pool and landscaped terrace like a mirador. The architectural concept involved the addition of living spaces in the form of a long ribbon situated laterally to and in line with the contours of the existing structure.
