Maurice Martel architecte introduces Sir Georges, an architectural transformation taking shape within a typical triplex in the central district of Montreal, blending past and present in an innovative manner. The project focuses on converting the structure into a single-family residence, denoting a bold reinterpretation of the city's architectural heritage.

The centerpiece of the transformation is a distinctive staircase, unfolding across the floors to become a functional and aesthetic masterpiece. Designed as a sculptural element, the staircase invites visitors to vertically explore the space, highlighting the transition between different eras that have marked the site.

On the outside, the rear facade presents a combination of volumes, creating a contemporary and contrasting aesthetic. The use of composite wood slats and white acrylic contributes to a visual dialogue between tradition and modernity, with clean lines reflecting the architect's creative approach.

Large windows allow an abundant penetration of natural light inside, promoting a harmonious integration of the interior space with its surroundings. The living spaces are designed to offer a bright and serene atmosphere, thus balancing indoor privacy with outdoor connectivity.

Inside, every aspect is carefully planned to offer a practical living experience. The use of noble materials, such as natural wood, adds a touch of discreet sophistication and comforting intimacy to each room. The living spaces are configured for conviviality and flexibility, adapting to the evolving needs of the occupants.

The kitchen, as a central point, is designed to meet culinary needs, while promoting sociability. The bedrooms offer peaceful retreat spaces, while relaxation areas, such as the living room and anterooms, serve as functional gathering places.

This architectural project represents more than just a renovation, embodying a pragmatic reinvention. It highlights timeless beauty, understated elegance, and the fusion of the past with the future. A statement towards the city of Montreal, its rich history, and its promising future, the initiative proposes a space where every detail contributes to an enriching residential experience, combining elegance and functionality.
