By integrating inventive experimentation into a 1950s Montreal cottage, architect Jean Verville emphasizes the link between art and everyday life in a project that stimulates the active participation of its users
The architectural work is characterized by volumetric assemblages and visual discoveries, contrasts and tensions, scale and trompe-l'oeil games. The contrast between black and white produces optical effects that oscillate between reality and abstraction, where two-dimensionality blends with three-dimensionality and the boundary between the extremes fades until it disappears
The urge to interact with the installation conveys the user through an architectural journey that ends in an experience completely altered by illusion. A journey through which the architect Jean Verville stimulates an interesting reflection on the concepts of coldness and seriousness often associated with contemporary architecture
