Victor Prus

Victor Marius Prus (Mińsk Mazowiecki (Poland), 24 April 1917 – Montreal, 21 January 2017)[1] was a Polish-born Canadian architect. He designed several major buildings in Quebec which won many prizes, such as the Grand Théâtre de Québec in Quebec City; his designs were chosen from those of several entries in a national competition in 1964. With his wife Maria Fisz Prus and many collaborators, he designed buildings remarkable for their characteristic and appropriate "ambiance", which, according to Prus, was the "ultimate objective" of architecture.

His principal completed commissions include:
