Client : EGR Assurances, Québec

Architect : Micheline Dufour, Architectes Régis Côté & Associés
Luminosity is the key issue of this project that the architect knew how to respect in the design of the site. Despite the 90 or so workstations on a single floor, all have natural light. The arrangement of the materials highlights this beautiful brightness.
Brightness and contrast
As the employer is committed to the well-being of its employees, it was essential to leave room for all the light. The open-concept workstations have been carefully designed near the windows. The individual offices are closed with the double glass walls of the SKY 700 series.
An original solution was proposed to the client to combine brightness and privacy. To make the main conference room more intimate, an electric self-frosting film was installed on Artopex’s removable SKY glass walls. With a simple switch, the frosted glass becomes clear. A brilliant innovation at the service of our customers.
Open ceilings, polished concrete floors, white office walls and furniture. This is how we look directly at the rich colours of the carpet. Inside individual offices, the rich blue floor covering highlights the all-white layout of the Air and Take Off series.
