Set on the edge of Poisson Blanc Regional Park in rural Quebec—an hour or so North of Ottawa and double that from Montreal—the La Pointe cabin by design firm l’abri is just about as good as it gets. Assuming what you’re after is a contemporary micro cabin inspired by the iconic A-Frames of decades past.
It’s well reported we love a classic A-Frame. Same goes for a well-designed micro cabin. Both have been mainstays on our weekly architectural inspiration feature since day one. Given how many iterations we’ve seen over the years it’s always a pleasant surprise to see something totally new, which is what makes La Pointe so fun and interesting. It’s purposefully simple—sculptural even—and designed to embrace nature in and out.
