The clients of the project are artists and actors Sophie Cadieux and Mani Soleymanlou, who work closely with the architects, creating extravagant installations and incorporating the presence of allegories. The architects and clients engage with enthusiasm and humor in front of the photographer's lens and produce images that transgress the limits of three-dimensional form
Architecture, theatricality and playfulness. Sensory perceptions transgress the limits of the three-dimensional
Jean Verville architectes studio explores a world where theatricality, playfulness and architecture come together in the "PLAY/PAUSE" project, a full-height set design in a house located in a residential neighborhood of Montréal
The interior of a narrow house in a Montréal residential neighborhood provides a backdrop for the creative world of its occupants with their own personalities in a setting that stretches the entire height of the building. Having to alternate between living and working needs, the spatial reorganization involves a series of volumes that follow one another
The void of the central space extends over three floors and all the spaces are unified through the use of monochrome gray. The use of furniture is reduced to a minimum and thanks to the light that filters through the metal surfaces and walls, the projections of shadows are multiplied and offer a continuous interplay of geometries that move on the monochrome canvas, capable of enveloping the place in a mysterious aura that creates a theatrical effect
