Our revisited and Eco-friendly St Arnaud 3

Designed for a southern optimal backyard orientation, we have kept the defining features of the original while offering new, more optimal and eco-friendly ideas. First of all, we find a closed entrance that also communicates with the kitchen pantry. Then there is a large open space with a double height at the living room level as well as a fireplace that adds definite charm. From the living room we can access the covered terrace located to the southwest, perfect for enjoying the beautiful outdoors.

Finally, there is a large mudroom for everyday use that also communicates directly with the garage.
Upstairs, we find an open mezzanine with a space that can be used as an office or bedroom directly to the southeast. Meanwhile, the master bedroom is also located to the south and has a large walk-in closet and a private bathroom. There are also two other large bedrooms, a closed laundry room and a full bathroom for the rest of the family members.

This farmhouse-style house is perfect for a large family that wants to combine aesthetics and eco-friendly features.

SUN:
The orientation of the house according to the sun’s daily path, combined with the thermal capture of the sun's rays using optimal fenestration, minimizing heating costs and maximizing the presence of natural light.
SIMPLICITY:
A house with modest volumes ensuring simplified construction, while favoring the maximization of interior spaces, to reduce the number of square feet and the construction cost.
SOUND MIND & BODY:
A home designed to promote the well-being and health of its occupants by being well ventilated, using durable and non-toxic materials (steel, wood, lightweight cladding, fiber cement, among others) and maximizing natural light.
