TRUE NORTH SQUARE
Through our glass-fiber reinforced concrete expertise in tandem with our knowledge of complex 3D modeling, Heavy’s PLAN—BUILD™ process was in full effect for the True North Square benches!
Our Approach
Transformative to Winnipeg and in the most strategic downtown location, True North Square features four towers spanning over one million square feet of Class A office, residential, retail, hotel and public space.
The Opportunity
Heavy collaborated with PFS Studio and the project team to bring their placemaking vision for plaza to life, carefully considering how the mixed-use space will be used and experienced.
The benches were designed using complex, curvilinear geometry and constructed using Cloudcrete to ensure that the integrity of the design was maintained while also providing a flexible, low cost, high quality alternative to cast concrete.
