Workshop Linkeroever Antwerp: Landscape first

Last week, September 30th and October 1st, De Urbanisten participated in an animated 2-days workshop “Europark Antwerp” Invited by Christian Rapp, city architect of Antwerpen, an international team of architects, landscape architects, and urban designers sketched on a long-term perspective for the monumental modernist neighbourhood Europark on the left bank of the Scheldt. The outcome of our work will be input for a Masterplan for the area.

We chose to contribute to this workshop with purely green models. This goes in line with our philosophy which is to make cities more nature inclusive and climate adaptive. Green space shouldn’t be space in between buildings, but a basic quality in our daily environment.
