Cool stuff. I have seen many of these around town. L'École Nationale de L'Humour is two floors below us so we see some pretty funny looking people in the elevators. Mountain Coop is a cool space, though the exterior isn't special. The Quartier international de Montréal is nice for it's reorganization of Victoria Square to it's original design and the public space created between Conference Center addition and the new Caisse de Depot. Maybe Nathalie's project will make the list next year.
ReplyDeleteYea, there's a lot of great-looking projects there. I would guess that something like Saucier + Perrotte's project or the Cirque du Soleil one will win. Guess we'll see...
ReplyDeletevery cool house too ! Good Idea to present the "choix du public"
