Bar Braque
AP066.S2.D5
Description:
Le dossier documente le projet de construction du Bar Braque, siuté au 980 est, rue Rachel, à Montréal, Québec. Le budget aloué pour ce projet était de 200 000$. Aussi, le projet s'est mérité le Prix d'excellence de l'ordre des architectes du Québec, distinction en architecture, en 1983. Le dossier contient des dessins, des documents textuels, des reprographies, des photographies, des négatifs, des diapositives, des panneaux et un photomontage. Description du projet par l'architecte: "Le bar Braque, du 980 est, rue Rachel à Montréal est un projet d'insertion d'une construction sur un site rendu vacant à la suite d'un feu, il y a plusieurs années. Une construction neuve a permis d'envisager le projet comme un geste entier d'intégration à la rue et à la ville. Les études de façade témoignent de la volonté de réaliser une architecture interprétative du caractère commercial montréalais. On peut y voir les liens fragiles qu'elle établit avec les voisines et simultanément l'importance qu'elle s'accorde par rapport à elles. Aussi, tente-t-elle de vibrer aux textures et aux couleurs préviliégiées des matériaux aptes à assumer les rôles commerciaux et culturels du lieu : bar dans la ville." Jacques Rousseau, Section A, nº 5-6, vol. 2, janvier 1985, p. 12-13.
