Kawartha Lake Cottage – Bolsover, Ontario
      Wow, this is exciting architecture and maybe one of the nicest pieces of design I have seen this year, details and lovely thinking abound. The A-frame structure is covered with black steel cladding, while other parts of the exterior are outfitted with reflective mirror giving an amazing sensation of nature being pulled into the entrance, expanding the front doorway and blending the facade into the natural surroundings. The materials of the cottage are high contrast, black metal cold outside and super warm pale wood inside. The form is like a mantra, simple, humble, connected to nature, a gorgeous, and inspired rethink of cottage architecture in Canada.
