Métis dovetail homes

2024

“Historic Métis Handhewn dovetail homes are quality architecture. They are built from the land using local materials and respect the lumber used by assembling it in a high quality manner that can last hundreds of years. There are many examples of structures still standing today that have lived through a number of different uses.” (Booklet Positive Lived Experiences of Quality in the Built Environment 2024, p.17).
