Our design revolved around three clusters of buildings, totaling 57 units, organized around landscaped courtyards and connected by a fluid pedestrian pathway. This ingenious planning fostered respectful volumetric integration and paved the way for rapid project acceptance by the community. The aesthetic was carefully considered, using variations in facade colors and materials (brick, wood) to animate the complex. Each unit was designed for resident well-being, benefiting from dual orientations to maximize natural light and air circulation, and all feature a balcony. Ten percent of the units are adaptable, ensuring better accessibility.

Le Courant du Quartier is a model of sustainable development, certified Novoclimat. Our firm integrated a high-performance building envelope and efficient ventilation, heating, and water systems that generate over 20% energy cost savings compared to conventional housing. Materials were selected for their low emissivity, durability, and high recycled content. Furthermore, over 50% of construction waste was recycled.

Thanks to rigorous planning and collaborative management, the project not only adhered to a restricted budget but was also delivered ahead of schedule, a significant advantage for families and the developer. This achievement solidifies our commitment to creating harmonious, inclusive, and environmentally friendly living environments.
