Designed as a off grid, net zero family relaxation destination, this project presented the opportunity for a young Toronto based family to rekindle nostalgic childhood memories by designing a cottage on the lake they had spent their summer months as children. Born out of a desire to spend time within the natural environment with their two growing children, the project owners placed environmental concerns at the forefront of the project design and construction practices. The resulting built volumes engage with the natural environment while remaining light on the land.
