CRJDA Sainte-Thérèse

The construction project for the Sainte-Thérèse Rehabilitation Centre for Youth with Adaptation Difficulties (CRJDA) is intended as a transitional living environment where young people are guided toward successful social reintegration. The complex, designed by ACDF, offers 90 accommodation spaces and includes numerous services such as a pharmacy, clinical services, classrooms, a gymnasium, a library, a cafeteria, outdoor parks, and more. Our mandate was to develop the graphic design, technical development, and final planning of all signage – indoor, underground, and outdoor – for this site, which includes an interior area of 12,000 m² and an exterior layout covering 9,700 m². Given the site’s high traffic, its specific clientele, and the evolving nature of its users over time, special attention was paid to the durability and robustness of the signage elements. In total, thousands of items were produced and installed to meet the specific needs of the site.
