-톱니 모양의 주택 [ LAMAS Architecture ] Virgin Vineyard House

LAMAS Architecture-Virgin Vineyard House

 

이 프로젝트의 디자인은 지역 농업 경관에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 필드스톤 벽에서 영감을 얻었다. 모인 돌은 집과 도로를 분리하는 조경 기능으로 시작하여 궁극적으로 건물의 북쪽 벽을 구성한다. 이 긴 돌담은 도로와 북쪽에서 불어오는 바람으로부터 생활 공간을 보호한다. 벽의 길이는 집 전체의 순서를 정하고 창, 굴뚝, 입구 및 안뜰을 구성한다. 이 긴 주택의 남쪽은 호수와 포도밭 전망을 제공한다.
이주택의 양쪽 긑에 개인 침실을 구성하고 중앙은 모임공간으로 형성 했다. 그리고 각 방을 나누는 벽은 호수를 향한 전망을 위해 의도적으로 회전했다. 방은 전망을 고려하여 톱니모양으로 배열되었다.

Situated between an old logging road and a working hillside vineyard, the Virgin Vineyard House derives its name from a farm whose ruins once stood above the site. The client was interested in building a new residence on the land, with minimal disturbance to the vineyard, that would capture views overlooking Lake Massawippi in Quebec's Eastern Townships. The new building will house the client and provide the ability for her to age in place, as well as to accommodate her daughter’s growing family.

 

The design of the project draws inspiration from the prevalence of fieldstone walls in the local agricultural landscape. Gathered stones start as a landscape feature separating the house from the road, ultimately comprising the north wall of the building. The architectural element is a secondary feature clipped onto this stone wall, sheltering the living spaces from the road, and the northerly winds, and discreetly tucking them into the hillside. The length of the wall enacts the sequence throughout the house, punctuated as it is by compositional events of the window, chimney, entry, and courtyard. The south side of this long linear residence is open to lake and vineyard views under a large protective overhang. 

This 155’ long house conveniently organizes the private bedrooms at either end, while the central gathering spaces convene in the middle of the linear house. The walls dividing each room are purposefully rotated for views facing the lake. This simple geometrical twist creates an oblique relationship between the rooms and the roof ridge line, making the rooms feel like private sheds, each with its unique volume directed towards the lake. In plan, the rooms are arranged in a sawtooth formation, creating recesses of semi-private spaces under the large roof overhang to contemplate the view. Within this seemingly simple building are two large voids, one being a courtyard framing the angle of the logging road, and the other a roof deck overlooking the entirety of the vineyard. 

The building is meant to elucidate a relationship between a stone wall and wood tectonics. Aside from the heavily insulated stone wall on the north side, most of the construction materials are wood. For the main part of the house, this refers to light wood framing, either with studs, engineered lumber, or deep joists. On the south facade, however, wood is employed structurally in the mullions of the wood glazing system, a highly performative envelope with triple glazing throughout.

Wood construction was of interest in order to keep the embodied energy and carbon footprint down, but also to allow for a well-insulated envelope. Beyond the environmental aspect, the lumber, hemlock cladding, stone, and even high-performance glazing systems were all locally procured in Quebec. Even the geothermal ground source heating was not just a "de rigeur" systems choice, but rather a particularly advantageous element in Quebec, where plentiful carbon-free municipal electricity can power the heat pumps. Foremost in the architects' minds was this connection to the location through materials and craft and traditional forms of Quebec architecture. The owner is currently working with a local horticulturist to plant indigenous flora to support the natural habitat of the site.
