In this extension project, Fugère Architecture focused on the harmonization between the new construction and the existing building, in order to improve the whole rather than highlighting only the new structure.
The new volume is a reminder of the oblique lines of the initial construction, the skylight replicates the roof pitch, and the wood used in the overhang perfectly matches the restored wood coating of the original building.
For the interior finish, FA proposed a concrete apparent structure, which sets the tone for the room layout and confirms the personality of the place.
This project has been selected as a finalist in the competition for Mérites d’architecture 2012 in Québec City in the category « Commercial and Industrial Buildings – Renovation ».
