Ice Hotel

A team of undergraduate students from the School is one of three finalist teams in the Architecture Éphémère competition at the Ice Hotel outside Quebec City: Maha Benhachmi (U2), Muye Ma (U2), and Mahya Sabour (U3).  For the 11th consecutive year, the competition was open to students from the universities of Laval, McGill, Montréal, and UQAM.  The three winning schemes were chosen from over 30 submitted projects, and they will be built as actual rooms in the Ice Hotel this winter.  They were selected for their originality, feasibility of construction, concept, and innovation.  At the grand opening of the Ice Hotel on Friday 15 January 2016, the competition jury will award ranked prizes to the three student teams.
