Les Trois Sommets: a multigenerational chalet with three pavilions.
The 3 Summits project is a holiday resort that combines the ambitions of several generations around a common passion: the outdoors.
The residence is located in such a way as to offer a maximum of unobstructed views of the mountainous landscape of Vermont this spectacular site, perched in the heart of the Green Mountains. The primary focal point of the whole house are the views to the outside. The beauty of the place is experienced by nature which changes every season and tints the atmosphere inside. What guided our design was therefore to preserve this strong link with nature, to favor a design with a pure line and to limit the materials.
The large glass walls give a complete panoramic view of the exterior. Thus, the desire for visual continuity inside has been prioritized. Wood, stone, metal are the materials found throughout the project both inside and outside the property.
This chalet is designed so that each generation has its pavilion but that everyone finds themselves at the heart in the central pavilion where the kitchen is located, this one designed with a huge central island which conceals all the necessary storage within easy reach. A preparation area juxtaposed to the windows allows us to keep direct contact with nature and gives access through a circulation area to the pantry hidden at the back of the kitchen. A dining room table has been custom designed to accommodate 14 guests. A Mud room has been designed and organized so that each person in the bigenerational family has their own dedicated space according to their sport, equipment and size.
The granite monoliths that form the pillars in the architecture continue inside as much on the wall of the foyer as in the kitchen and the corridors between the three pavilions. Finally, the wooden ceiling continues outside at the soffit. This continuity of materiality creates a direct relationship with the outside and an openness to nature.
In the design of the lighting of the main living room, we favored two sections with openings, created by a succession of crosspieces allowing to conceal projectors on rails to thus perceive a luminous flux without glimpsing the source.
In the basement of the central pavilion, a large family room where there is a lounge and ping pong and Mississippi tables, livens up the weekends. In addition, direct access to the outside offers to end the evenings at the edge of a fire pit with the family.
