The Stageline Group Building
Allard, Hamelin Lalonde, Consortium d'architectes
OVERVIEW
The Stageline Group constructs and markets covered mobile stage trailers which are used internationally for over 10 000 events annually. For their new production and leasing facility, the Stageline Group made the decision to build a highly efficient industrial building. The 3,670 m2 facility contains a production plant for Stageline mobile stage trailers, a maintenance workshop, an assembly and pre-event production area, and office space. The facility was the most energy efficient industrial building in Quebec at the time of its opening.
The design was conceived around the notion of a sustainable prefabricated building, and its completion is a North American first. The integrated design process promoted the synergy between the client, the architects, the engineers and the contractor. The energy efficiency of the building reflects the client’s corporate commitment to environmental protection.
Sustainable construction at a reasonable cost and the use of technology was balanced throughout the design and construction process. Modelling made it possible to incorporate the most cost-effective and energy-efficient technologies. In keeping with the purpose of the building, the design is simple and efficient, but at night, the lighted building dominates the landscape like a stage.
