Anew five-story atrium by architect Provencher_Roy is featured prominently inside the Hélène Desmarais Building of HEC Montréal, a business school founded in 1907. The glazed glass not only allows students to enjoy an abundance of sunlight but also results in geothermal energy—promoting the school’s long-term sustainability. The project earned a LEED Gold Certification.
