"Located in a lot with a steep slope and surrounded by preservation forest, the Balance House translates the combination between integration, sophistication and a precise dialog with topography. Designed as a summer house for a couple and their daughter, the residence takes advantage of the natural terrain to create an inverted program: The six bedrooms, all suites, occupy the upper level, facing the view, while the social areas develop on the lower floor, in direct contact with the garden and the pool."

Balance House sits on a steeply sloped lot surrounded by preservation forest. The design emphasizes integration, sophistication and a precise dialog with the topography. The program is inverted: six bedrooms, all suites, occupy the upper level to capture views. Social areas are placed on the lower floor to engage directly with the garden and the pool. The residence functions as a summer house for a couple and their daughter. The design takes advantage of natural terrain to separate private and public functions while reinforcing connection to landscape and view.
