Dezeen Features Virgin Vineyard House by LAMAS in Quebec’s Eastern Townships
Virgin Vineyard House by LAMAS was featured on Dezeen in an article titled “Rural structures in Québec inform Virgin Vineyard House by LAMAS.” The project, located in North Hatley in Quebec’s Eastern Townships, is presented as a contemporary rural residence shaped by the region’s agricultural architecture and landscape conditions.
The feature focuses on how the house draws from the spatial and material language of local farm structures, including elongated barn forms, fieldstone walls, and clustered agricultural buildings. Dezeen highlights the project’s long linear organization, stone base, and folded roof geometry, describing how the house is embedded into the sloping vineyard site while orienting views toward Lake Massawippi and the surrounding landscape.
The project is structured around a continuous stone wall that anchors the house to the terrain and organizes a sequence of rotated interior spaces along its length. Through this arrangement, the design develops varying relationships to light, views, and topography, using vernacular references not as direct replication but as a framework for contemporary rural living in the Eastern Townships.
