2. Our Expertise
Our primary field of expertise is structural engineering and building rehabilitation in all its forms. We have an in-depth understanding of the processes that lead to building defects and deterioration, as well as the various methods currently available to address them.
Over the years, our experience has allowed us to develop several specialties organized around five key areas:
- Architectural panels and curtain wall engineering for building envelopes of all categories
- Design and structural analysis of steel, wood, and masonry framing systems, as well as reinforced concrete foundations
- Design of ventilated, heated, or refrigerated spaces
- Interior design, patio layout, and residential building “makeovers”
- Mechanical engineering prototyping and new-product simulation for research and development (R&D)
We also develop construction techniques in micro-architecture (modern small dwellings). Our expertise extends to the world of “cargotecture” and eco-responsible modular housing fully built from insulated prefabricated panels.
In addition, we are committed to providing training for professionals and industry stakeholders in the construction sector, helping them achieve the performance objectives they have set.

4. Company History
Sphenix Mperia was founded in January 2016 and specializes in engineering services for manufacturing companies, contractors, and professionals working in the construction industry.
The firm’s office is located in the heart of Montreal’s business district. Sphenix Mperia was founded by engineer and designer Prince Félix Logossou, who has over 25 years of professional experience in mechanical, industrial, and construction engineering. Prince Félix Logossou holds degrees from the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (UQTR), Université Laval (Québec City), and Concordia University (Montreal).
During his travels in Europe and the United Arab Emirates, Mr. Logossou developed a strong appreciation for the wide range of building-envelope products used on bold, contemporary architecture. This experience sparked his passion for ambitious, modern achievements in architecture and structural engineering.
Throughout his extensive career, Mr. Logossou has contributed to the development of several technologies, including stage lifts for live events (Gala Systems) as well as construction hoists and jobsite elevators (Fraco products). As a Product Engineer at Norbec Architectural, he played an active role in approximately thirty construction projects, including the MUHC C.U.S.M (Centre universitaire de santé McGill), Telus Stadium at Université Laval, the Miqro Innovation Collaboration Centre in Bromont, and Place Bell in Laval, to name only a few. From 2013 to 2015, Mr. Logossou also contributed to improvements in Tim Hortons restaurant Walk-in freezers by working closely with the TDL Group engineering team based in Toronto. Building on this experience, he launched Sphenix Mperia, an engineering consulting firm dedicated to partnering with contractors, North American architectural firms, building owners, and project developers. Mr. Logossou also regularly delivers training workshops for construction professionals and contractors. In 2017, he gave a conference at the Palais des congrès de Montréal as part of the 8th Annual Building Envelope Symposium organized by the Conseil du Bâtiment du Québec and the AERMQ. 8e colloque annuel sur l'enveloppe du bâtiment
