In the University of Montréal campus, all the ground is water-proof: parking, pavement. While the campus is on the top of the Mont-Royal hill, water goes in the storm sewer. The aim of the project was to reduce the quantity of rain in pipes. This water could be filtered and infiltrated in the ground where vegetation could use it or where the groundwater could be recharged.

The Olympiades is known as a very good example of architecture of the 70's. Big towers, different layers of living, parking, gardens and shops all juxtaposed. This area was so schemer to me that i worked several times on it. For a movie inside it , revelating the mess and the labyrinthe. Then with photography, i try to understand the feeling of behing a human in a gigantic world, surronded by giant of concret.
