gable ends cottage by PETER BRAITHWAITE STUDIO

Designed by Peter Braithwaite Studio, the Gable Ends Cottage sits exposed on the rocky Atlantic coastline of Nova Scotia. With simple geometry and weather-ready detailing, the house takes inspiration from the region’s fishing huts — structures built to last through wind, rain, and snow. Raised above the terrain, it balances lightness and strength while offering full exposure to the sea.

The 3D visuals focus on the contrast between the rugged environment and the clarity of the architecture — highlighting the bold lines, soft interiors, and sharp material transitions that make this home feel both grounded and elevated.

Located in Halifax, Canada
