Architecture Competition
Saucier + Perrotte / Hughes Condon Marler Architects wins the architecture competition for the future SMEC soccer centre
 
The jury chaired by architect Isabel Hérault chose this concept for its bold, simple architectural identity. The members also appreciated the elegance of the pavilion in its park setting, with an ample floating wood roof structure covering the playing fields. The jury also awarded a special mention to the firm Éric Pelletier Architectes for its concept, which displayed remarkable functional resolution. You are invited to view the four finalist projects in this video produced by Parce Que Films.
