Located in the heart of the Plateau Mont-Royal district, the project consists of the renovation and expansion of a duplex dating from the 1920s. Our project nicknamed ''le Petit Merlot'' owes, among other things, its name to the neighborhood who hosts it, Le petit Laurier. With its lively shopping street, this neighborhood represents the typically Montreal way of life where relationships between neighbors are built around a good meal. Petit Merlot owes its name to this spirit of conviviality but also to its red clay brick cladding which characterizes the surrounding built environment.
