The nuances chosen are reminiscent of the Canadian Prairies where most of the transhipped goods come from. The careful graphic signature as opposed to rough concrete, the bold architectural gesture and the materiality of the site deserve a mention from the jury.

Practical and playful, the layout is inspired by the world of video games that the company makes. Like a village, the space is organized along alleys and small squares. The various volumes put forward materials that serve as landmarks and delimit the functions.

The original concrete structure is enhanced by the clean style of the intervention, all in sober tones and elementary volumes. Informal spaces accompany an architectural promenade running along the glass walls and framing the landscape of the metropolis.

An atypical choice for an office in Place Ville Marie, it opens transparently onto an off-centre reception that offers a unique panorama of the city and groups together the café and meeting rooms. The jury applauds the thought behind the space with its fluid and sophisticated surfaces.

The space is crossed from one end to the other by a circulation axis where the various work and study areas are distributed on both sides. The mechanical and electrical components have been magnified, an ingenious nod to the fact that the user is located in an engineering school.

Red, the emblematic hue of the show, is at the heart of the development of this digital art presentation space in Quebec City. The custom-made lighting, the curvature of the furniture, the embossed texture of the partitions, all evoke with modernity, a theatrical imagination.

Challenge taken up to make an addition to the noble Parliament Building in Quebec City. Buried under the historical architecture and minimalist in its approach, the new pavilion frees itself from formal constraints and emphasizes the spatial experience. A promising gesture.  

Here, the architectural aestheticism and the unusual tone of the materials add a je-ne-sais-quoi to this dental practice. The raised waiting room creates a sense of intimacy and well-being for the patients. A luxurious and professional charm.

The new river station is in keeping with the riverside theme. The elaborate language is remarkable for its simplicity. The jury appreciated the use of a wooden structure and the enhancement of the material. Here, design and sustainable development are in harmony.

Measuring 300 metres in length, the ramp of the reception pavilion slides under the existing stairs and becomes the symbol of a more direct access to democracy. The railing is fluid and provides true universal accessibility, the same for everyone – simply perfect!
