Westmount (heritage) greenhouses

Works
Required
The interior layout played a central role in this project. The concept highlights a discovery path integrated with a floating ramp that overlooks the plantations, allowing an immersive exploration of the interior landscape. This design promotes diverse perspectives while creating a universally accessible connection between the library and the community center. Elements such as low walls, water features, and distinct areas for permanent or seasonal plants enrich the user experience.

Results obtained
The layout program has been redesigned to accommodate a variety of uses — meetings, musical events, musical events, botanical interpretation or even ceremonies such as weddings — while maintaining the main purpose of greenhouses as a plant exhibition space. Meeting high environmental standards, the project integrates energy-efficient solutions that reconcile heritage and sustainability. All of these interventions reaffirm greenhouses as a vibrant, multifunctional place that is rooted in the social and cultural fabric of the community.
