This project investigates Mile-Ex, Montreal through a series of site observations and spatial, social, and cultural studies. Everyday rituals, urban patterns, and lived experiences are documented and translated into a physical concept model that captures the neighborhood’s layered character and distinctive atmosphere.
Acting as an intermediary between observation and architectural proposition, the model reveals relationships between built form, movement, tectonics, and community life. These findings inform a series of architectural typologies that reinterpret existing conditions while proposing new modes of spatial and tectonic expression. Architecture becomes an urban mediator—connecting scales, programs, and communities while creating new forms of interaction that reflect Mile-Ex’s evolving identity
