INSTRUCTORS: KURT ESPERSON-PETERS & NICOLETTE LAYNE

The goal of this project was to transform the Granite Curling Club into a library of our choice. The final design was called Cornucopia. Cornucopia is a space dedicated to supply an abundance of knowledge about Winnipeg. The space is meant to inform patrons through the use of books and lecturers. We often forget all the positive things that have happened in the past and that are currently happening in our city. The environment pays an ode to the original character of the building and historic details, with a little care, light and re purposing.

As a class we were tasked to connect our concepts back to Mary Oliver’s A Poetry Handbook. The mirroring of some of the historic design elements remaining unchanged mimic an off-rhyme. Something that is similar, but not exactly the same

Undisclosed

Undisclosed is a 485 m² exhibit and event space that displays the history of the covered waterways in Winnipeg and the evolution of pollution in the Red River. The exhibit space is convertible into an event space on the ground floor for lectures and workshops. There are both fixed and non-fixed displays all along the ground floor to continue the confrontation of information no matter the use of the space. Undisclosed provides walking tours in the winter along the river and throughout downtown Winnipeg in the summer. The space also features a speakeasy with a menu that caters to the theme of pollution and destruction, with an elegant twist. The door to the speakeasy appears to be a mirror which forces the user to reflect on themselves and the exhibit above before entering the decadent dining space.

The location of the project is currently known as Cibo on Waterfront Drive. The demographic in the area includes people on opposite ends of the socio-economic spectrum. There are people living in million-dollar condos and people living on the streets. The decaying site plan and the harsh exhibition displays in contrast to the luxurious interior finishes confront and exaggerate that reality. Scan the QR code to see a video of the space.
