Quai 5160

Verdun, Quebec, Canada, 2017

The House of Culture of the Verdun Borough of Montreal, Quai 5160, is a multidisciplinary space for municipal dissemination that is part of the Access culture network, which aims to make proposals from artists from all walks of life more accessible to the general public. A true jewel of contemporary architecture, the design of the place was entrusted to the firm Les architectes FABG following an architectural competition held in collaboration with Design Montréal. The City of Montreal has entrusted part of the design and all the audiovisual integration of the building to the experts of XYZ Cultural technology
