The harvest calendar in the Qikiqtait region

Image depicting the harvest wheel interactive experience installed in the Canadian Museum of Nature. Positioned at a 45-degree angle to the vertical to facilitate interaction with the public, a large screen displays the home screen of the experience. It is placed approximately three feet above the ground for ease of use.

The harvest calendar in the Qikiqtait region In 2025, Voilà designed and implemented an interactive seasonal harvest wheel for the Qikiqtait region. Commissioned by the Arctic Eider Society, the static wheel was later adapted into an interactive experience at the request of the Canadian Museum of Nature for one of its exhibitions. The harvest wheel […]

Heating our buildings without impacting the climate

An image showing a series of images laid out on a light gray background. Presented like posters, these images are all taken from the report "Heat Exchange" and include both text and charts. At the center, seemingly floating in the air, is the cover image. On this cover, the title "Heat Exchange," in large capital letters, dominates the space, with the two letters "E" and "X" in blue and the rest of the word "change" in red. The letters of "Exchange" are not all aligned on the same baseline, giving it a sense of movement. The letters "E" and "G" create a gradient of shapes behind them with their outlines. The word "heat" is written above this title in smaller, on the left. Framing the cover is the Climate Institute logo at the top, and the subtitle "How today's policies will drive or delay Canada's transition to clean, reliable heat for buildings" at the bottom.

Heating our buildings without impacting the climate In collaboration with Voilà:, the Canadian Climate Institute has developed a new report on the impact of today’s policies on the transition of buildings to a cleaner and more reliable heating system. The aim of this project was therefore to draw public attention to the invisible challenges associated […]

Moving to a net zero future in an uncertain world

Moving to a net zero future in an uncertain world CPP Investments, Canada’s largest pension fund, is committed to achieve net zero in their portfolio and operations and they wanted to communicate their plans to a larger audience. We worked with them to craft an interactive explaining their commitment to all Canadians. https://chezvoila.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/CPP-Net-Zero-EN-vignette-animee-ajustee.mp4 A guiding […]

Tracking Canada’s progress toward Net Zero emissions

The image shows a front-facing iMac on a gray background, with its large screen, keyboard, and trackpad. It displays the 440 megatonnes dashboard homepage, with one of the main charts in the project, a line chart showing emission levels between 2005 and 2021, as well as the projected decrease of emissions through 2030. A decreasing band shows the "Net Zero pathway" that decreases to zero emissions between 2021 and 2050. The gap between projected emissions in 2030 and the "Net Zero pathway" is highlighted with a bracket and red text.

Tracking Canada’s progress toward Net Zero emissions Is Canada on track to meet its 2030 emission reduction goals, and how far might it be from a path toward Net Zero? The Canadian Climate Institute conducted an independent assessment of Canada’s emissions reduction plan and came to us to showcase the results. Clarifying the structure Before […]

Demystifying the costs of heat pumps for consumers

In an office room, on a table, a desktop computer shows the interactive. The screen background is a pastel gradation of colour from pastel blue to orange. A paragraph of text faces an illustration of a heat pump, set in a dark blue circle. Bright orange and blue bubbles surround the boundaries of the circle.

Demystifying the costs of heat pumps for consumers As part of a project aimed at increasing the adoption of heat pumps, the Canadian Climate Institute challenged Voilà: to design a web-based interactive to demystify the costs of heat pumps. The interactive needed to present the costs of different heating and cooling configurations, across five different cities […]

A comprehensive assessment of the cost of climate change for the Canadian population

Contextual photo of the presentation broadcast in a conference room. In the center of the image, the presentation is projected onto a television. A chest of drawers below furnishes the room. The screen shows an introductory slide to the study undertaken by the Institute. The title, "Limiter les dégâts" ("Limiting the damage") is present, as is the star image of the analysis, represented by a house in the form of a fragmented collage symbolizing households. In the foreground of the photograph, we see the conference room with a wooden table.

A comprehensive assessment of the cost of climate change for the Canadian population The Canadian Climate Institute has published the latest in a series of studies on the costs of climate change, demonstrating that the financial health and prosperity of Canadians are at risk. It is aimed at decision-makers, urging them to take action. The […]

Achieving net zero in Canada will require a Big Switch

Two copies of the summary report in print format. One is shown closed, showing the front cover of the report. It features a megaphone icon projecting a stream of light that illuminates a pylon icon. The title is "The Big Switch". The second report is presented open, and shows the highlight of a double page spread of the printed report. On the left page, we can see the first page of the second chapter, and on the right page, an infographic.

Achieving net zero in Canada will require a Big Switch In its new report, the Canadian Climate Institute lays the groundwork for a new electricity policy, exploring “the changes needed in Canada’s electricity systems to align them with net zero”. The challenge for Voilà: was to create compelling visuals that illustrate both the Institute’s message […]

A rich ecosystem that deserves to be preserved

Poster of a scientific illustration showing underwater life.

A rich ecosystem that deserves to be preserved The Société des établissements de plein air du Québec (Sépaq) called on Voilà: to redesign two discovery activities at the Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay. We designed fifteen illustrated panels to present the geological formation of the fjord and the marine biodiversity of the region. A common thread: […]

Limiting the impacts of climate change on Canadian health

Overview of the scrollytelling on a computer screen. It shows a paragraph of text facing 15 black and white character portraits, each surrounded by several layers of grey and blue circles. The background of the scrollytelling is yellow.

Limiting the impacts of climate change on Canadian health The Canadian Climate Institute launched a series of reports on the costs of climate change and the health of Canadians is the subject of its second publication. We worked together to present these findings in the form of a scrollytelling piece. To jump to the scrollytelling […]
