Sacré-Coeur de Montréal Hospital’s Design Concept
Natural light and views of the outside are abundant throughout the structure, boosting patient and user well-being. The patient block, which appears as a free-floating volume above the lower levels, is distinguished from the lower levels by a primary masonry materiality that reflects the original 1926 heritage architecture. © Olivier Blouin
The language of alternating vertical bands of a solid brick wall and a curtain wall provides exceptional energy efficiency in the envelope while preserving natural light and views from the internal areas. The rhythmic pattern of openings in the envelope and the objective of establishing an effective integration of the extension into its landscape and heritage environment take on a decidedly contemporary character.
