Proposed design concept:
- Uninterrupted flow of light from east to west.
- Central glazed core for closed spaces. Central wall parallel to the light flow in accent color to support the bay windows of the closed spaces. Each department with a closed office finds its collaborators in front of it in the open space area.
- Free access reception core in an arc to delimit the public zone versus the controlled zone. Possibility of adding doors on each side to physically separate the public from the private.
- Open space with perimeters that take maximum advantage of natural light without obstacles. Maximum flexibility of spaces. Separations of the offices by movable partitions for the offices along the windows and with the upper part glazed for the offices along the blind wall.
Description of proposed materials and reason for their selection:
- Floors: 6' slatted engineering floor in FSC certified Canadian Maple, local, extremely resistant, warm and friendly. Supplier: Appalachian Flooring. Installation of ceramic tiles in public or wet areas such as the reception area, washrooms and kitchen.
- Walls: Light colored painted gypsum to reflect the maximum of natural light.
- Doors and hardware: All full height doors will be salvaged and reused in the glazed core for closed spaces.
- Ceilings: Reuse of existing ceiling in 60% of cases and patching for the remaining 40%. Recovery of existing ceiling panels. The existing ceiling is in good condition, so why remove it? Standardize ceiling heights to 9' high to optimize the unity effect.
- Partitions : Glazed with opalescent appliqué on the first 5 feet to provide privacy.
- Finishes: Benjamin Moore Eco Spec VOC-free paint.
- Built-in furniture: Wood and glass to echo the floor and partitions.
Sustainability Measures:
- Desks: purchase of remanufactured desks from Bureau Réseautique with the ability to matte existing ones.
- Choice of materials: Local wood floors, VOC-free paint, reuse of existing ceilings, 100% reuse of existing furniture. All rooms have natural light with different degrees of penetration.
