Canadian design team Open Form has shared with us their recent competition entry for the new Trois-Rivières Amphitheatre. Additional images and a description from the architects after the break.

At the crossings of the St-Lawrence Seaway and the St-Maurice River, the new Trois-Rivières Amphitheatre presents itself under an elegant structure that opens up towards the water and creates a dynamic unifying device over the entire seating area, whether open or closed. Under the roof, sometimes material and sometimes transparent, a play of form and program mixes with the landscape creating an expansive field of physical and visual relationships between the built and natural environments that creates a new mixed-use urban field on the edge of the city.
