Vision poétique

A fiveplex of La Petite Patrie in Montreal is expanding on the third floor.

The large steel beam makes it possible to open up the entire floor and to expose the ceiling made of rough hemlock boards. The space is divided into three distinct boxes in which the various services are grouped: wardrobe, bathroom and staircase. The expansion, on the courtyard side opens onto a small private deck, thus making the client’s poetic vision a reality.
