魁北克国民议会新馆于去年5月正式落成，这也是一个多世纪以来，该议会的首座新建筑。这座新馆由集建筑、设计、城市规划和景观设计于一身的多学科公司Provencher_Roy和建筑事务所GLCRM Architectes共同完成。它不仅是国民议会现代化基础设施开山之作的一部分，更为广大民众提供了便利。早在2016年该项目还处于概念设计阶段的时候，它就已经被加拿大《建筑师》杂志（Canadian Architect）授予了第49届杰出建筑奖（Awards of Excellence）。如今，这座已经完全施工完毕的议会新馆不仅体现出对历史问题的透彻理解和掌握，更显示出其对特殊场地的高度关注。

Unchanged for more than a century, the National Assembly of Québec inaugurated, last May, its new reception pavilion, designed by Provencher_Roy, a multidisciplinary firm integrating services in architecture, design, urban planning and landscaping, in consortium with GLCRM Architectes, as part of an initiative to modernize the institution’s infrastructures and facilitate access for the general public. The project garnered a first merit award as early on as the conceptual phase in 2016, at the 49th edition of the Canadian Architect Awards of Excellence. Today, the fully realized project embodies a thorough understanding and mastery of heritage issues and shows great care and attention paid to an exceptional site.

鉴于项目基地的特性和历史，建筑干预必须在对过去的反思下进行，这在魁北克实属个例。国会大楼的立面设计在世界上也是鲜有的，它以人物肖像的叙述方式记录着历史，不仅充当着空间之旅的起点，更突显出建筑的法国特色和整个空间的对称性。新馆被置于整个建筑的中心轴线上，与主入口和议会花园齐平，当人们从正面看过去时，会发现整个新体量都被隐藏了起来。

The intervention required special reflection because of the quality and the history of the place, which is absolutely exceptional in Québec. The facade of the Parliament Building, one of the rare facades in the world to depict such an iconographic narrative, constitutes the starting point of the architectural process, its classic French character and its symmetry permeating the entire project. The new pavilion is inserted on either side of the central axis that aligns the main entrance and the Parliament gardens, and is completely concealed when viewing the heritage building from the front.

“在本项目中，我们的设计团队选择了一种巧妙且完全融入的干预方式，即将整个新馆置于现有的景观场地之下，并通过一个巨大的楼梯将新体量与原有的议会大厦及其入口紧密地联系在一起，”Provencher_Roy公司的建筑师、高级合伙人兼创始人Claude Provencher解释道。

“Provencher_Roy opted for a sensitive and completely integrated intervention, by sliding the entire pavilion beneath the existing landscape and using the monumental staircase to establish  a new entrance, to the pavilion itself and to the Parliament’s spaces,” explains Claude Provencher, architect and senior partner at Provencher_Roy, the firm he co-founded.

为了更好地将新馆空间置入原有建筑中，议会大楼的正立面被下挖至建于1886年的坚固的基础处；楼梯中的所有砖石元素也都被逐一拆除统一存放，待到置入完毕后再重新安装。这样，议会大厦历史悠久的叙事立面不仅仍然保持着其原有的可见性，同时还维持着其与花园的直接联系。而在大厦基础的位置上，新馆体量采用了玻璃外墙以突显出自己的存在感，这种存在感会在黄昏时分达到顶峰。通过这种设计方式，游客们得以在进入充当着接待厅的新馆之前更加近距离地观赏议会大厦的立面。
