This photographer’s studio/boathouse/retreat belong to Larry Williams, who shot these images and appears to be living the eastern Canadian dream. Or, as Arch Daily put it, “A photographer’s studio over a boathouse on Stony Lake is a re-imagination of the archetypal glass house in a landscape in the Canadian Shield.
