Youth Fusion
Dans le cadre de ce projet Design 375° de Fusion Jeunesse, en collaboration avec RBC, le Conseil des gouverneurs de la Société des célébrations du 375e anniversaire de Montréal et le Gouvernement du Québec, les élèves de 5e année de l’école Henri-Beaulieu ont insufflé plus de vie à leur cour d’école en créant des bacs à fleurs à partir de pneus recyclés, en construisant bancs de l’amitié hexagonaux ainsi que tables pique-nique (en collaboration avec l’école nationale du meuble et de l’ébénisterie), en plantant, entre autres, des arbres fleuris, et enfin, en installant une paire de buts de soccer quatre saisons.

Youth Fusion
Dans le cadre de ce projet Design 375° de Fusion Jeunesse, en collaboration avec RBC, le Conseil des gouverneurs de la Société des célébrations du 375e anniversaire de Montréal et le Gouvernement du Québec, les élèves de la classe FPT (formation préparatoire au travail) de l'école Saint-Henri ont poursuivi le réaménagement de l’îlot vert entamé l’an dernier. En plus d’y installer un piano public, ils ont conçu et créé des tables hexagonales munies de toits, des bancs installés dans les escaliers, des poubelles ainsi qu’un croque-livres. Ils ont aussi bonifié le verdissement de l’espace, en plantant entre autres, leurs propres semis, avec la collaboration de l’éco-quartier du sud-ouest, l’EMSOM, Alternatives et Soverdi. L’objectif des élèves était de rendre la cour plus intéressante et agréable pour les élèves de l’école, mais également les résidents et passants du quartier.

Landscape manipulations embed and connect the house to its site: constructed with fieldstone found on the property, low retaining walls create a foundational plinth for the house and an enhanced sectional dynamic.

Inside, floors and walls made from white oak and knotty white cedar are textured and warm. In contrast, the ceiling above the main space is white, expansive and seemingly boundless. The distinct difference in materiality echoes the meeting of land and sky outside.

The house looks to the east and west during the winter months onto forest and harvested farmland. Toward the end of spring, the opening of the central space’s bifold doors refocuses the view to the north and south onto hills and emerging crops.
