Originating from Montreal but with a global perspective, ACDF, the subject of this monograph, perfectly embodies the dynamic interplay of dichotomies. Balancing the contrasts of black and white, glossy and matte, French and English, ACDFs projects are a masterclass in navigating these polarities. They infuse new vitality into the contrasts of colour, texture, form, and functional design. ACDF is the perfect blend of North American pragmatism and European flair. The studio is a rich mix of logical thinkers and hopeless romantics; its approach is methodical and exploratory, balancing efficiency and creativity. FRAME provides an unfiltered view of ACDF within these pages, tracing its evolution from a nascent idea to a fully realised architectural studio. The texts also delve into establishing the firms core values, its workspace design, and Montreals influence on its growth. Anecdotes from Maxime Frappier, the firms principal interviewed throughout this book, offer a vivid depiction of the exhilarating chaos and thrill of creating something new. ACDFs projects move away from ego-driven architecture and towards a more context-sensitive, user-centred approach. This prompts us to reevaluate our understanding of good architecture and encourages us to explore new methods of developing captivating and resilient built environments.
