Trois-Rivières · Gift idea

A Trois-Rivières keepsake that stands out

Skip the keychain: give the city itself. The Ursulines convent, the Laviolette Bridge and the river, hand-drawn across the four seasons, as postcards or a poster to frame.

What the drawing shows

At the heart of the poster, the Ursulines convent under its pewter dome, with its sundial. Behind it, the turquoise arch of the Laviolette Bridge spans the river, where a freighter passes.

In front, a row of local shops: a « Poésie » bookshop, a brasserie, a bench under a lamppost, a nod to the city of poetry.

Four seasons, four gifts

  • Spring The river breaks free of the ice and the first flowers wake up downtown: the card for new beginnings.
  • Summer Terraces, mild evenings by the water, the city in festival mode: the memory of the best months.
  • Autumn Blazing maples and the start of term at UQTR: the favourite season of those who studied there.
  • Winter Snow on the Ursulines dome and the river under ice: the perfect gift for a Christmas away from the city.

Who is it for?

UQTR graduates, to keep a piece of the city where they studied.

People from Trois-Rivières who moved away, to Montréal, Québec City or the other side of the world: a card in an envelope, and the city comes back.

Visitors passing through who want a keepsake nicer than a fridge magnet.

Local businesses, for a host, client or team gift that feels local.

Hand-drawn in Montréal

Behind Klemstudio is Clément, an illustrator based in Montréal. Each city is drawn one by one in flat design: simple shapes and flat colours, so you recognise Trois-Rivières at first glance.

The drawing is vector-based: it stays perfectly sharp, from the small postcard to the poster. Trois-Rivières belongs to the « One city, four seasons » collection, with Montréal, Québec City, Trois-Rivières, Sherbrooke and the Plateau.
