Located in the borough of Pintendre on the outskirts of Lévis, the new 1,500 sq. m. fire station houses eight fire trucks. The concept, created by STGM and CCM2 Architectes, began with a splitting of the station's functions, which can be seen by the different volume heights between the garage and the living spaces.
The interior has been designed to maximize the work and living spaces. The garage has an abundance of windows that provide pleasing natural light and views of the rural setting. Offices and conference rooms are located at the front, while the living room and kitchen area are located at the back of the building.
