Description

AN OLYMPIC AMBITION

Design and architecture professionals and students from all over the world are invited to propose creative and innovative solutions to breathe new life into the roof's components, which are made up of a variety of materials, including the iconic cables that support the current roof, the two inner and outer membranes, and the fittings that support the structure.

The ideas competition is open to the international community in order to gather as many environmentally, economically and socially optimal suggestions as possible. Quebecers will then be invited to vote for their favorite of the eight ideas selected by a jury of recognized experts.

This initiative is part of a broader approach to sustainable development and the circular economy, and could be complemented by the design of an art trail using materials from the roof. Together, these actions will give a second life to the Olympic Stadium roof, for the benefit of the Quebec population.

The proposals must aim for resilience and adaptation to climate change, which represents a real Olympic challenge. To this end, proposals must aim for concrete results that have the potential to improve living conditions for residents as soon as they are deployed, by responding to neighborhood issues.

By way of example, we are looking for - but not limited to - proposals aimed at :
- Strengthen the social and community fabric;
- Create cool zones;
- Create four-season social spaces;
- Encourage soft and active mobility;
- Encourage urban agriculture;
- Forge links with surrounding neighborhoods;
- Link residents to the river.

PROPOSALS THAT ACHIEVE A HIGH LEVEL OF SOCIAL ACCEPTABILITY

To ensure the success of this reuse approach, a number of factors need to be considered. Expected proposals must demonstrate a real ecological benefit, and be clearly part of a circular economy approach, by contributing to the environment and the local community. They must be structuring, have an impact on the neighborhoods surrounding the Stadium, meet the existing needs of the population and consider the vulnerabilities of the area.
