Résidence Galia

Résidence Galia

Québec, QC

This residence, blending modern, farmhouse, and Nordic styles, is truly one of a kind. Its distinctive H-shaped layout is enhanced by the inclusion of an indoor basketball court. This unique design creates a hidden inner courtyard, fully glazed to offer clear views from the living areas to the gym.

The two main volumes, topped with steeply pitched roofs featuring minimalist detailing, are connected by a sleek, linear walkway. The exterior is clad in uniform horizontal masonry, giving this boldly geometric home a timeless elegance. The living spaces open onto a densely wooded backyard, fostering a seamless connection with the natural surroundings. Similarly, the integration of green roofs and a thoughtfully designed, non-invasive landscape frees the residence from any temporal constraints, creating a lasting harmony between architecture and nature.
