Montreal-based Smith Vigeant Architects designed this fascinating Mont-Tremblant National Park Discovery Centre in Québec, Canada.

Description by Smith Vigeant Architects:

Given its pristine location in the heart of nature, the use of wood as the primary material facilitated the harmonious insertion of the building into the unspoiled setting.

To achieve this, a wide variety of wood species were used on both the exterior and interior, reinterpreting the site’s richness in textures and colors, while giving the building durability and resistance.
