McGill 38

2017-2018 KDC Finalist

Surplombant le fleuve dans le quartier historique du Vieux-Montréal, McGill 38 est la garçonnière de rêve. La cuisine se situe au cœur de cet appartement terrasse en duplex, bordé de fenêtres. Passionné de cuisine et de réceptions, son propriétaire souhaitait un espace pratique au quotidien, mais également épuré, ouvert et adapté aux dîners et autres réunions entre amis.

And the mind behind it all: designer Louis Beliveau. Taking the constraints of the challenging central staircase and eighth-floor placement (and small elevator) in stride, Beliveau started the redesign by ripping away the low, constricting ceiling. This opened the space, letting it breathe, and exposed the raw concrete skeleton. This stark architectural element pushes the space squarely into its industrial, refined aesthetic. To conserve the streamlined feel, Beliveau selected Sub-Zero undercounter refrigeration units for their ability to seamlessly integrate into the cabinetry. The Wolf range was essential for the quasi-commercial kitchen look he aimed for.

An impressive L-shaped island pierces and delineates the kitchen and dining area. What could be considered the “guest side” of the island features a bar-height counter, an ideal vantage point for visitors to pull up a stool and watch the host in his element. On the kitchen side, the raised floor brings the cook up to optimal preparation height.

In one of Canada’s oldest cities, Beliveau crafted a contemporary home fit for the modern host. With necessities in place for the day-to-day and special occasions, McGill 38 is less of a bachelor pad than a hub for enjoying others’ company.
