Montreal’s Creative Center is designed to encourage and support local artists. The center is located within a former bank building covering 26 463 SF. The space accommodates a large exhibition, a design process gallery, marketing and sales areas, spaces for mingling at the cocktail lounge and restaurant. The layout and design of the center has been created as a flexible environment, striving to immerse the community within the space. Overall, the design strives to marry both the Art Deco style found in the existing building with a new modern twist.

L’Académie Apartment is a social housing project for Montreal families located in Villeray. The project takes an abandoned school that it turns into 28 apartments and 6 townhomes as well as family targeted amenities. A fresh, clean, and airy design can be seen throughout in order to create spaces that will age gracefully. A focus was added to the incorporation of a courtyard in the design, serving as a community hub for residents.
