01 PHI CONTEMPORARY M. Arch. - Sem. 3 (Group Work)

Old Montreal, Canada Type: Museum

DESCRIPTION: PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES: A museum of contemporary art, The Phi Contemporary is situated in Old Montreal’s northern portion. Its main goal is to reimagine the concept of the museum experience. Our design is based on a thorough knowledge of inclusive and sustainable architecture that supports every user of the space. Phi’s vision to make the museum as a critical reference point inspired us to consider incorporating cutting-edge ideas into our design. One of the most bold features in our design is the cantilevered exhibition space which achieves two important goals. First, there is a visual connection to the Old Montreal buildings, and second, this design is able to acknowledge the significance of the nearby buildings while also defining itself as an unique structure. Aside from this, the building contains various other innovative concepts to enhance the museum experience, such as gender-neutral restrooms, an ice skating rink on the roof to draw more visitors, and an interior bicycle parking wall. The inclusion of all these help the Phi Contemporary push the boundaries of what a museum is.
