- Located on a high bluff overlooking Falcon Lake, eastern Manitoba’s favourite cottage lake.
- The design process was led by the client who worked collaboratively with Cornerstone’s design team to integrate the mass timber structure.
- Large, cantilevered decks and roof extensions were easily achieved with mass timber.
- Site access was challenging with assembly work restricted to the building’s footprint. The use of prefabricated CLT and glulam components made this both possible and efficient.
- The Reynaers window wall system integrated perfectly thanks to the high accuracy of mass timber fabrication.
