Located in Smoky Lake, Alberta, Canada, the new Métis Crossing Cultural Gathering Center is a stunning structure that integrates traditional craftsmanship with modern materials. It hints at the building style of past times, yet offers modern functionality.

Designed to create a contemporary space to gather, learn, and share the Métis story. Accoya wood was chosen for cladding and vertical slats/fins surrounding the back of the building. To learn more about Métis Crossing, visit their website here.
