Epsylon is very proud to have obtained the mandate for the realization of the glazing architecture that is the signature of Robert Lepage’s new theater Le Diamant, in Quebec city.
The architecture of the new Diamant shows a great concern for keeping the historical heritage of the city in this new entertainment venue. The ancient facade of the YMCA has been completely restored, while a massive glass caisson, which constitutes the building envelope, is inserted with an inclination that joins the line traced by the côte d’Abraham, a street that formerly linked the lower town to the porte Saint-Jean. Epsylon is honoured to have been part of this wonderful project that perfectly combines traditional architecture and contemporary style, thus offering an exceptional showcase for Quebec city’s cultural richness.
