Saint-Eustache Library/ ACDF*

By — Filed under: Museums and Libraries , , ,

Courtesy of

ACDF* has shared with us their design for the new library at Saint-Eustache, which is north of Montréal, . The library is founded on the notion of creating a contemporary project that also shares a story that reveals the historic value of its site. The project symbolizes the reconciliation between the urban form of the Saint-Eustache as it is today, and the history of the riverside site. The concept for the project further integrates fundamental ecologically responsible principles which focus on building compactness, energy economy, and the use of high quality, sustainable materials ensuring the permanence of the project. More images and architect’s description after the break. read more »
