Our design<\/span> of the Rideau University Residence<\/span><\/b> at the<\/span> University of Ottawa<\/span><\/b> in Ontario was a real challenge for<\/span> our firm.<\/span><\/b><\/a>. We were tasked with transforming an old hotel into a superb <\/span>student residence.<\/span><\/b>. We had to keep a large part of the existing structure while customizing it to a younger clientele. It was a long project, but the final result was worth it!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Modern<\/span><\/span> student residences<\/span><\/span> are increasingly focused on community and knowledge sharing, and need to be continually adapted to offer<\/span><\/span> new spatial configurations<\/span><\/span> to residents. We included <\/span><\/span>student residence<\/span><\/span> conversion in our hotel development plan<\/span><\/span> to respond to<\/span><\/span> this growing demand.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

For phase 1 of this project, we had to work on a tight deadline because the owner wanted to open the establishment for the summer. Phase 2 involved creating <\/span>a collaborative<\/span><\/b> common area<\/span> on the building\u2019s<\/span><\/b> ground floor. We built on our experience from our <\/span>Espace 3C<\/span><\/b> and<\/span> Co-working 6cent1<\/span><\/b> projects\u2014two stimulating and collaborative co-working spaces.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Our team was able to leverage their experience in<\/span> real estate development<\/span><\/b><\/a> to other areas of expertise that are just as complex. We\u2019re no strangers to building up.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Our lobby design started with integrating different features<\/span> like the<\/span><\/b> ground floor<\/span> lounge<\/span><\/b>,<\/span> kitchen<\/span><\/b> and<\/span> common<\/span><\/b> areas. We were also involved with creating the project\u2019s brand identity and graphic design from the beginning. Lastly, we drafted technical plans and <\/span>selected<\/span><\/b> materials<\/span>, products<\/span><\/b> and<\/span> furniture<\/span><\/b> for the project.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>The<\/span><\/span> timeless decor and layout<\/span><\/span><\/a> were carefully catered to a young, student clientele.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
