About Louise

Louise Pelletier is an architect by training and a writer at heart. Her fiction and nonfiction explore the spaces we inhabit—both physical and psychological—and the ways they shape memory, identity, and human experience. Through stories of people searching, questioning, and reinventing themselves, she examines the hidden connections between place, imagination, and belonging.

Drawing on a career in architecture and teaching, she is particularly interested in how places preserve traces of human aspiration, memory, and desire. She is the author of five books on art and architecture and has contributed to more than thirty anthologies and international journals.

She lives in Montreal, where she writes and teaches architecture and design.
