Not unlike a gazebo, the interior and exterior spaces are interconnected by a network of walkways comprising a catwalk, stairs, covered passageway and an outdoor gap based on the natural course of the trails.The architectural approach and the site itself dictated the use of vertical cladding echoing tree trunks in the nearby forest. A winner of the Prix d’excellence Cécobois 2016 — for institutional buildings under 1,000m2 — the building is very carefully integrated into its natural setting, following the site’s topography so closely that the building appears to be sculpted from the landscape itself. A stratum of the building’s landscape-roof rises gently, echoing the park’s topography. The first half of the building’s main volume gently follows the same contours from which the outdoor amphitheatre is carved. After nightfall, the effect transforms the storage areas into gigantic lanterns.
