Chapel at Quebec City funeral home, La Seigneurie

1
THE BRIEF

Memorial services are known to be places of reflection — but rarely do they inspire meditations on design. And yet a revamped funeral home in Quebec City’s quiet Beauport borough has become a testament to the comforting role that a well-crafted space can play in the mourning process. One of the oldest funeral cooperatives in Canada, La Seigneurie was based out of cramped, outdated facilities when it brought in two local firms — Ultralocal Architectes and interior design studio Perron — for a total reincarnation. “The client asked us to completely rethink the user’s feeling and experience in the space,” explains Maryse Tourangeau, project manager at Perron. The outcome is nothing short of resplendent.
