Ice-breaker event at "L'île rouge" (Oct. 29th - from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm)

The name "île rouge", or Red Island, is taken from the Corten steel (which has "rusty" appearance) that covers its facades. Designed by the architects at Forma 6, the project embraces its industrial past. It is the home to Forma 6, the Regional Council of Architects and the Regional Centre of Architecture.

At the heart of the Creative Arts District, Forma 6 and its partner companies initiated a real estate development, located on the Front Populaire mall, just steps from the School of Architecture and the School of Fine Arts.

Ile Rouge, clad in metal mesh and surrounded by vegetation, expresses its designers' desire to generate a new sustainable dynamic for construction.
