Inspired by nature
The name of the project, Odea, is based on the Cree word “ode” meaning canoe which will explain the subtle and stylized symbol of the canoe in the architecture.
Located at the gateway to downtown, Odea aims to highlight the presence of the Cree Nation in Montreal through a distinctive project, integrating their values and highlighting some of the characteristics of their culture. The architectural design creates a visual and urban link between the project and its environment.
A collaboration between Jean-Francois Gagnon, Project Design Principal, with the Indigenous emeritus architect Douglas Cardinal allowed for the exploration of the Cree community symbols and the integration of a strong cultural identity in the project’s architectural composition.
