Your Room Has a Story
Your room has been activated.
Every bedroom and apartment in La Maison Ralia carries an imprint.
The building was designed by Indee Design. The rooms are activated by Montrealers we love. Artists, coaches, podcasters, sculptors, sound healers.
Depending on how the space inspired them, they printed photos, built portals, wrote poems, brewed teas and blessed walls. Activated.
Two activators are with us permanently: Florence Charron of Indee Design, who designed the entire building and activated our event space, and Margaret Lipsey, whose paintings live in all our transition zones (see the next page).
Our other activators rotate. The current cohort is featured in their own magazine.
Look around your room. Something will catch your eye.
Pick up our current Activators magazine at the boutique, or scan the QR code in your room.
Meditate on a Margaret Lipsey
The permanent art collection in our hotel.
Margaret Lipsey is one of two activators who never left. Abstract painter. Reiki master. Montrealer. The transition zones of La Maison Ralia, every stairway, every landing, every threshold, are hers.
Her collection in residence:
Her paintings are not decoration. They are an invitation. Pause on the way up the stairs. Notice what they do to your breath.
Margaret’s full studio is at margaretlipsey.com.
