Canadian design studio Naturehumaine created the La Cime holiday home nestled in the woodlands of Lanaudière, Quebec. This vacation home is clad with timber materials and is paired together with large windows to invite natural lighting into the interior space.
This also gives the visual illusion that the house is floating amongst the treetops. The home is quaint and features one bedroom that is paired with a sloped roof and wooden plant cladding which is inspired by traditional wooden huts. The studio explains, “Wishing to create a unique sensory experience for visitors, the design of the building was determined by the beauty of the views of the surroundings. The felt experience is also magnified by the floating effect provided by the location of the home, at the edge of the steep slope of the land."
