Le Montcalm

Project Summary:

Le Montcalm is a modern residential project nestled in the heart of downtown Montréal, bridging the cultural vibrancy of the Quartier Latin and the liveliness of the Village. The project aims to provide urban dwellers with an exceptional blend of comfort, accessibility, and contemporary design.

Architectural Vision:

The design of Le Montcalm draws inspiration from the rhythm of downtown life while integrating harmoniously with the urban fabric. Its architectural language plays on contrasts, between light and dark, solid and void, balancing bold volumetric presence with refined detailing. A central design element is the corner tower wrapped in vertical glass strips, creating a beacon-like feature at the intersection and bathing the circulation spaces with natural light. The façade alternates between dark and light masonry brick volumes, while the use of vertical window proportions emphasizes the height and elegance of the structure.

Key Features:

Contemporary Façade Composition: Brick cladding in dual tones for contrast and rhythm.

Vertical corner glass atrium offering visual connectivity and daylight.

Comfort-Focused Interiors: Generously sized balconies for most units.

Efficient and bright unit layouts.

Amenities & Sustainability: Indoor parking and bicycle storage.

Rooftop communal terrace with panoramic views
