Pearl House Montréal, Canada

Pearl House is the new home of a South Korean family with two young children.

Upon their arrival in Québec in 2008, Min and Yuong moved into a small condo on the top floor of a large residential building in Montréal. In the 10 years they lived there, the family celebrated the birth of two children. The toddlers, however, were spending a lot of time playing indoors and the apartment began feeling cramped.

For Min and Yuong, the desire to move into a home with well-balanced living spaces and to allow their son and daughter to play outside freely became a priority.

After some research, the couple fell in love with a bungalow located on a large corner lot, surrounded by mature trees, in the borough of Saint-Laurent, in Montréal’s north end. Although the interior decor needed a major facelift, the house, inspired by the modernist movement of the 1960s, featured clean lines and compelling architectural elements: ideal conditions to implement a project full of family appeal.
