Fogo island, Canada, only with 2.600 people, create a new hotel.

A new hotel, in a strange landscape in a strange island in Canada.www.fogoisland.ca

"The cantilevered wings that make up Fogo Island Inn, a cruciform structure clad in indigenous spruce, are set at peculiar angles, appearing to be held up by slightly off-kilter stilts. This careful detail embodies a particular brand of Newfoundland humour – equal parts sly wit and bravado, born of ingenuity and necessity. The angles suggest that the 29-room hotel is so cleverly designed, you could remove all of the supports and it would remain standing, despite the snow, sea spray and occasional gales from the wild North Atlantic pounding at its doorstep".

 Personally I think it is not to much integrated in the landscape but if we look the other photo of vernacular architecture we can understand why fogoislandinn is a special hotel.
