School: McGill University | School of Architecture
Class: ARCH 405 Design and Construction 3 | Design Studio
Instructor: Howard Davies, Andrew King
Description: Children's Museum Project
Location: La Pointe-des-Seigneurs Archaeological Park, Montréal
Date: 2012/13 Fall Semester
The Children's Museum, located on a triangular site along the Lachine Canal, serves the neighborhood area as the most recreational and socially interactive space; both children and adults can visit and share the enjoyable moment at the museum. The idea of the serpentine design of the museum is derived from the image of the boa constrictor, engulfing an elephant, from the world's most famous French novel 'The Little Prince.' The museum is prospected to play a significant role as an urban and recreational centre.
