魁北克大剧院以其粗暴的建筑风格而闻名,是一个文化标志。Lemay和Atelier 21的任务是恢复和保护该建筑摇摇欲坠的外壳及其内部标志性的Bonet壁画。

Prized for its brutalist architecture, the Grand Théâtre de Québec is a cultural icon. Lemay and Atelier 21 were tasked with restoring and protecting the building’s crumbling outer shell and its emblematic Bonet mural, inside.

新的围护结构是对一个复杂问题的微妙回应。在为该建筑的许多弱点制定纠正措施时,跨学科团队提出了一个可持续的、创新的解决方案:在混凝土结构上增加一个透明的玻璃幕墙。

The new envelope is a delicate response to a complex problem. In developing corrective measures for the building’s many weaknesses, the transdisciplinary team produced a sustainable, innovative solution: adding a transparent, glass curtain wall to the concrete structure.

玻璃外壳经过精心设计,与原建筑师维克多-普鲁斯开发的结构和约尔迪-博内特的壁画作品保持一致,被普鲁斯的保护性外壳所掩盖。它有时是离散的,几乎是非物质的,它反映了周围的环境,并成为与城市的主要接口,在发现这一重要的魁北克作品时增加了一个额外的戏剧性行为。

The glass casing was carefully designed in continuity with the structure developed by Victor Prus, the original architect, and the mural work of Jordi Bonet, enshrined by Prus’ protective outer shell. Discrete and almost immaterial at times, it reflects its surroundings and becomes the main interface with the city, adding an additional theatrical act in the discovery of this significant Quebecois work.

按照设计,薄薄的防护玻璃墙通过创造一个次要的、有温度的、容纳低流量热回收和热质系统的围护结构,使大剧院免受外界影响。该系统既节能又经济。除了其主要功能外,新层作为其保护的原始建筑的延伸,使用相同的微调结构逻辑和组成。

As designed, the thin wall of protective glass shields the Grand Théâtre from the elements by creating a secondary, tempered envelope housing a low-flow heat recovery and thermal mass system. The system is both energy-efficient and economical. Beyond its primary function, the new layer acts as an extension of the original building it protects, using the same finely tuned structural logic and composition.

Lemay公司的建筑师和设计负责人Eric Pelletier说,对建筑的任何改动都必须受到严格的限制。建筑物的脆弱性与无法直接接触到混凝土锚构成了一个重大的挑战–在剧院正常的白天和晚上工作期间对建筑物进行施工。

Any alteration to the architecture had to be severely limited, says Eric Pelletier, architect and design principal at Lemay. The building’s fragility paired with the inability to directly access the concrete anchors posed a major challenge – with work on the building proceeding during normal daytime and evening theatre operations.
