Description:
Le dossier documente le concours sur invitation de la Faculté de l'aménagement de l'Université de Montréal tenu en 1994, de septembre à novembre. Le dossier contient des dessins, des reprographies, une maquette et des documents textuels. Objectifs du concours: "C'est avec une grande confiance que nous misons sur l'excellence des propositions que les équipes soumettront: l'objectif poursuivi est de doter la Faculté d'aménagement, après plusieurs années d'attente, d'espaces d'une qualité correspondant aux enseignements qu'elle dispense et d'un lieu qui puisse devenir une référence en matière d'aménagement." Extrait de la lettre du Doyen de la Faculté et de la directrice de Immeubles aux concurrents (66-C012-002T). Description du projet par l'architecte: "L'implantation d'une figure d'exception telle le cercle pour l'agrandissement du pavillon (qui comporte les fonctions à caractère collectif du programme) réussit à instaurer une polysémie très riche sur les plans urbain et architectural par ses références historiques et formelles conjuguées aux visions ouvertes des espaces contemporains. Aussi, au niveau du paysage, la figure d'exception introduit le thème du pavillon du parc pour se transfigurer comme objet et enluminure au coeur du paysage." Extrait d'une lettre de l'équipe de Jacques Rousseau au jury, accompagnant la soumission du projet (66-C012-002T).
