Biosphere

The Biosphere, originally created as the United States pavilion for the 1967 World Expo, became a Montreal landmark transformed into an environmental museum in 1995 after surviving an accidental fire in 1976. Today, under the management of the City of Montreal and Environment Canada, it continues its modernization as part of the Space for Life network.

In this context, Patriarche is involved in several renovation and development aspects, respecting and reinterpreting the original architecture. The work includes the refurbishment of the original roofs and metal platforms. On the belvedere, a new volume is added to accommodate a sanitary block, improving the services offered to visitors. A transformation of the museum spaces is also planned, ensuring continuity in educating and inspiring future generations on environmental issues.
