Renovation of the Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier

Context

Atelier TAG + Jodoin Lamarre Pratte architectes were selected in the spring of 2015 to design several renovation works as well as the interior rehabilitation of the foyers, lounges and performance hall of the Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier at Place des Arts, an important element of Montréal's modern heritage inaugurated in September 1963.

Scale

3 540 m² / 4,6 M$

Timeline

2015 — 2017

This project of great visibility required research in the archives of the Société de la Place des Arts de Montréal to anchor a new concept in a building with a strong image in the collective memory of Montrealers. A custom carpet design was developed for this project and produced by a Quebec manufacturer. In addition to new bars, furniture and architectural elements, this project also featured the collection of works of art exhibited in the lobbies.
