Designer: Amanda Thomas Degree: B. Architecture School: Carleton University Year: 2012 Location of Project: Besser Street and Rideau Street Project Status: Unbuilt
The concept for the design is the cardboard box and how it can be unfolded and configured into a new composition. The project features two buildings: Boite Rideau and Boite Besserer. Both buildings interact with a public, outdoor art exhibition space, called the art walk, which runs between both buildings, creating an intellectually stimulating throughway.
