We are interested in is Dolbeau - Why Mistassini city theatre can successfully play such a role? This new culture center is by the architect Paul Laurendeau and Jodoin Lamarre Pratte architects of common construction, their buildings in the city's 2005 organizations emerge from 30 design scheme in the contest, becoming the first prize winner.
as Dolbeau - Mistassini city cultural center, the building need to juggle multiple USES: satisfy performance, but also all kinds of large-scale activities, which are held at the same time, also need to satisfy the municipal council of daily administrative office. To this, the architect will space planning mainly three parts: Italian style school hall can accommodate 491 people, with 400 booths for the large hall of special events and exhibition and housed in a former glass facade behind the main entrance of administrative office at the top of the committee. Artist in addition, in the east is located in the dressing room, hall, and adjacent to the area between the red brick building planning also have a small courtyard, and introduce the green plant, the courtyard at the same time will be old and new, the horizontal and vertical, and contrast, will be private and bright areas ( The artist dressing room) And the dark imposing public area ( The hall) To unify. Symmetry of the theater entrance in a simple geometric shape and smooth lines of the seiko structure, also adopted a simple material, in this way, formed a new comparison between the glass and steel. This design is Paul Laurendeau iconic elements, he insists to put such a design form first, 'this is an often overlooked aspect, it has never been seriously discussed. At first, I don't have to consider from the Angle of acoustic level surface is feasible! Just create a huge space, acoustic parameters is later to join, it is also very satisfied. Under 'on such a conception and creation of Dolbeau - Mistassini city theater show different from other meaning. If watch a live show is an incredible hearing and feeling experience, then entered the Dolbeau - Mistassini city theatre can be found that the experience of the other side, and also waiting for you personally to reveal the secret.
with drama style of architecture, within the building space form the rows of the room in the form of strewn at random, like the drawer is opened with Chinese style box: the entrance to the hall, and then lead the people into the hall, the hall is a large black symmetric Spaces, the side has a large window, facing the enigmatic tall, with a gold ornament. Located in the heart of the building of the hall to possibilities is a part of the design. 。 。 。 。 。 The door was the door left unlocked, the performance has begun, leak out a vibrant red ring corridor. Internally, the most dramatic is the top: from satin and velvet, from red to black, then to golden and central chandelier sparkling swarovski crystal lamp. All this will charm reminiscent of performance, and in round, golden sky reminds us that time has stalled. Audrey Jobin said: 'it is very warm, very soft. Inside the hall, we are as if into another world. 'A statement of the construction sense of drama, Paul Laurendeau seems to have an innate ability. He asserted architectural creation is luxuriant and intimate drama, and the correctness of such a bold statement has certain: they created a cylindrical theatre, two boxes, strewn at random in both sides from the central part of the cylindrical space outspread, to avoid large trailer affect spatial structure, and avoid interrupting the rhythm of the music at the same time, because the communication between the audience and stage artists is one of the most important. As Paul Laurendeau puts it: 'the audience feel the unity is very important, the unified in their Shared space is also very important. 'Indeed, this approach not only make the audience feel good, at the same time, also can bring the performer cheerful, stimulate the performers more investment performance. Famous director Ingmar Bergman once education his students should attach great importance to the requirements of drama art, don't indulge in the effect of its performance. Architects understand this rule, in the design, their first priority from the history of architecture in the most beautiful looking for drama art and architecture in the theatre, to support these ideas, then according to the professional practice idea hall and stage. 'Create a sense of intimacy for each theatre audience created excellent sound effects. Everything is sound space and part of the overall atmosphere, 'Laurendeau claims. In addition, the building also the application of today's latest technology, can meet the different requirements of multifunction theatre. First of all, successful theater design depends on team cooperation between professionals, 'responsible for the project of multimedia, stage set and multimedia system Go consultant Guy Desmarteaux argues that' in a theater before and there is a huge space space, but the architect can make the space disappeared. I found that the theatre of the most interesting is its friendly, no matter where you are, you will attune to such affinity. 'In took three years to study theatre building, to visit Europe and the United States many theatres and studying, Get some valuable first-hand information, to validate the idea) Now, after Paul Laurendeau are going to through a book project - — Write a handbook of theatre building - — To share his study found that as future technologies and concepts for the other architects reference source.
