INSTITUTIONAL

My architectural practice encompasses several sectors, including the design and delivery of healthcare facilities, where I focus on blending operational efficiency, patient comfort, and community impact to support collaboration. For the current Kwilu Ngongo Hospital Project in DRC, I integrate innovative design and sustainable building solutions tailored to the local context. This comprehensive center is organized to meet diverse needs, including a Mother and Child Clinic, Community Health Centre, Surgery Clinic, Laboratories, Cafeteria, Pediatric Clinic, X Ray Center, and Morgue. Every element, from layout to material selection, is strategically planned for smooth workflows, safety, and a welcoming atmosphere. My goal is to deliver a functional, safe, and dignified space where medical teams can perform effectively, patients receive compassionate care, and the architecture supports health, hope, and resilience in the community. 

Completed in 2009 by Mr. Bergman’s firm (with my integral participation as an intern architect), the Canada Post Distribution Centre at 2800 Boulevard des Entreprises in Terrebonne, QC, is a large-scale, Utilitarian Industrial structure spanning 12,959.1 square meters (139,491 sq. ft.), architecturally designed for optimal logistical efficiency. The facility features distinct massing, combining a high-bay warehouse and processing area with a smaller volume dedicated to administration and a public retail post office. Construction emphasizes durability and function, utilizing a robust structural steel/concrete frame and exterior cladding of insulated metal panels or large-format masonry, ensuring a low-maintenance, high-performance building critical to the region's distribution network. 

The building at 2501 Lapinière Boulevard in Brossard, Quebec is a functional, suburban low-rise office building characteristic of the South Shore’s commercial corridor, conceived primarily for administrative and public-facing institutional use rather than iconic architectural expression. It features a restrained modern exterior—likely combining concrete and glazing—with a clear, accessible public entrance and surface parking integrated into the site. The building houses a Service Canada centre as its principal tenant, supporting a range of government services, and may also accommodate additional professional or institutional offices. Strategically located along a busy arterial road near major retail and transit hubs, it sits within a mixed commercial context dominated by offices and services. The building was designed by Maurice Bergman and his architectural firm, of which I was a member of the design team, contributing to its planning and realization. 

The building at 3400 Avenue Jean-Béraud in Laval, Quebec is a mid-rise, four-storey office building representative of early-2000s suburban commercial architecture, conceived for efficiency, flexibility, and long-term institutional use rather than architectural monumentality. Its restrained exterior, composed primarily of concrete and glazing, conveys a clear professional and governmental character appropriate for large administrative operations. The building was designed to accommodate the Agence du revenu du Canada as a principal occupant, with interior layouts suited to open-plan offices and secure administrative functions, supported by generous surface parking for staff and visitors. The project was designed by Maurice Bergman and his architectural firm, of which I was a member of the design team, contributing to its planning, development, and execution. Strategically located near Carrefour Laval and major transportation corridors such as Highways 15 and 440, the building forms part of Laval’s primary business district and serves as a significant federal government office presence on the North Shore.
