Description

In a place so deeply invested by the memory and so neuralgic in the Rimouskois space, how to insert ourselves, or rather insinuate ourselves with our present, so that the past is expressed without constraining or violating it, and that through it the future is drawn.

The first word that comes to us to name this complexity is "crossroads", and we would like it to inspire and command our project. We want, with all the respect and the lesson that it inspires, a friendly confrontation with the recent and distant past.

It is to a dynamic of the present that we will appeal and this leads us to the idea of "path". For example, at the beginning of it, we would like the light to preside as a symbol of the intellect, invading the entrance hall by unexpected places and that once internalized by the visitors as an instrument of comprehension of the place, it fades by degrees towards the places of exhibition. The approach adopted therefore suggests that the functions be distributed around the exhibition spaces as the heart of the project.

Jury Report

Dignified, elegant and respectful of the old building" was the unanimous choice of the jury, a concept that "allows the church to shine through while providing a contemporary image". The signage element, inspired by fishermen's weirs, "recalls the traditional culture of the region while offering a contemporary signage option.

Inside the building, the architects opted for sobriety and economy of materials both in the administrative spaces and in the exhibition rooms, which can, if necessary, benefit from natural lighting.

The jury also appreciated the fact that the winning team limited its intervention to the existing envelope of the museum, thus showing concern for the corporation's very tight budget.
