Developed by TLA+UN+NEUF, the Aux Mille-Voix high school embodies a forward-thinking vision of education—evolving, sustainable, and inclusive. As part of Quebec’s initiative to renew education infrastructure, the project goes beyond the traditional concept of a school to transform it into a true public building: a place where people meet and interact, bringing life to its neighbourhood.
The design is fully adapted to the urban context, both in its massing and layout. Composed of two compact volumes surrounding a central courtyard and linked by two intersecting axes, the school opens onto a public square, fostering strong community connections. The site’s topography naturally supports this connection through a series of tiered, interconnected levels.
At the heart of the project is an educational program expressed through open, fluid architecture. Designed to foster collaboration and creativity, the school features flexible, light-filled learning spaces. Symbolizing this approach, the atrium and central courtyard serve as dynamic community hubs, accommodating cultural and festive events that reinforce the school's integration within its local environment.
Beyond conventional classrooms, the school is equipped with cutting-edge facilities, including technology labs, performance studios, and creative workshops. Moveable partitions allow spaces to transform easily, supporting a wide range of educational and extracurricular activities. The "Les Possibles" and "Convergences" works of art, located in key common areas, enrich the environment and symbolize knowledge and creativity.
Sustainability is embedded throughout the project. The design includes green roofs, a geothermal heating system, and recycled materials, with the goal of achieving LEED v4 BD+C Silver certification (Schools). The building envelope features wood, concrete, aluminum, and natural stone, while the interiors prioritize locally sourced materials with low VOC content, significantly enhancing indoor air quality.
A biophilic approach guides the project, integrating indigenous planting, maximizing natural daylight, enhancing water management, and encouraging active transportation. A black maple tree anchors the landscape at the heart of the school, joining a thoughtful mix of preserved and newly planted species. Together with targeted wellness strategies, these features create a strong connection between users and the natural environment.
More than a place of learning, the school is a hub for interaction and community development–designed to support present and future generations.
