Site plan for the second phase of the park: woodland, paths, basins and four-season play spaces.

The context

The second phase of Parc Les Salines, in Saint-Hyacinthe, extends the existing park around a woodland, a stream and wetlands. The project is led by a team of landscape architecture and engineering firms: Atelier Vita Loci, ARPaysage, Adiva Infra and Scaliance Studio.

The program

  • A redesigned forecourt around the existing chalet, the active heart of the park
  • A skating plaza and an ice trail in winter
  • Play areas, a splash pad and climbing boulders
  • Group and picnic spaces
  • Retention and bioretention basins, renaturalized areas and woodland discovery stops

Our work

Scaliance Studio worked on the design of the site plan and its graphic document. The plan’s palette has 24 colours, organized by family: hardscape surfaces, seasonal facilities, buildings, vegetation, water and habitats. One shade per surface type makes the plan readable at a glance, for elected officials and residents alike.
