Sculptural Elegance in the Heart of Mont Tremblant - La Flèche Residence by MU Architecture

Описание: Nestled along the wild northern shores of Lake Tremblant, La Flèche is a Quebec residence that reimagines the mountain chalet with contemporary elegance. Noble, vernacular materials firmly anchor it into the rugged site, while its sharp, angular roofs carve boldly into the sky.

More than a home, La Flèche was conceived as a family legacy—built to gather generations in this magical setting where alpine skiing gives way to water sports with the change of seasons. Wrapped in the Laurentian forest, the residence opens to the east with a breathtaking view of the vast lake and iconic Mont Tremblant.

Settling into the mountainside

Set on a dramatically steep site, the residence unfolds across two levels, totaling over 700 square meters. The compact, buildable area required blasting through rock, much of which was then repurposed for landscaping and retaining walls. Managing the runoff from the mountainside posed its own challenges, requiring careful water control around the 40-meter-long structure. The landscaping was designed to allow the lush natural vegetation to reclaim its place. Within the municipality of Lac-Tremblant-Nord, strict environmental regulations—such as a ban on visible exterior lighting—ensure the protection of local fauna, including the unafraid deer that roam freely and almost invite touch.

True to its philosophy, MU Architecture crafted a roofline that suggests a vast residence, while concealing a lower garden level entirely from view. This understated approach, characteristic of the firm and its clientele, favors elegance and restraint over ostentation.
