           Lemay and Atelier 21

             Create a New Act

                for the Grand

           Théâtre de Québec


                 Québec, Canada


                 rand  Théâtre  de  Québec’s
                 restoration project has just been
           Gawarded four prestigious awards
           of excellence. Two have been presented
           by the Ordre des architectes du Québec -
           the jury’s highest honours and the public’s
           choice. SAB Magazine has also recognized
           the project with the Green Building Award
           as well as the Royal Architectural Institute
           of Canada, for its innovative prowess.
             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.
