123: Mast and Floor Plate Foundation | m.o.r.e. CLT Cabin
Description
In this episode, Cherise is joined by Paul Kariouk, Principal at Kariouk Architects in Ottawa Ontario, Canada. They discuss the award-winning m.o.r.e. CLT cabin in Wakefield, Quebec, Canada.
You can see the project here as you listen along.
Perched lightly above the rugged landscape, the m.o.r.e. CLT Cabin redefines the North American cottage. Unlike conventional lakeside retreats that mimic suburban comforts while claiming harmony with nature, this structure embraces a radical approach—one of genuine environmental responsibility. Rather than imposing itself onto the land, the cabin hovers above it, implementing an innovative mast and floor plate foundation with a minimal footprint.
