Lode²

We will soon be moving from our current office, the Morkhoven Community Center—a joint project by Lode Wouters & Fons Mostien—to the Heilige Lodewijk Van Montfort Church in the Kriekenhof neighborhood in Deurne. A striking feature of this former parish church is the stately cross and  front building between the row houses, also by Lode Wouters, and the rear volume in the inner area, designed by Karel Angst.

Hybrid Structures

Max Goovaerts & Jeff Van Camp from our office will be lecturing in a training course hosted by Pixii on hybrid construction methods. They will be discussing their expertise on CLT structures of the new SD Worx Headquarter in Antwerp.

Building with Van Laere in collaboration with Sergison-Bates Architects.

Circular school construction in practice

“Circular construction not only means environmental benefits, but also greater flexibility, less maintenance, and a building that can adapt to changing educational visions” - according to Architectura. The article on circular strategies in contemporary school construction refers to Het Vliegertje in Deurne because of the spaciousness inside the building and the multifunctional usability of its facilities.

Thanks to Vlaanderen Circulair and Cuypers & Q for the publication 'Guide to circular school construction'.

Two weeks ago, we welcomed the City of Antwerp's Department Omgeving at the construction site on Cadix A4 for a guided tour. Here, Bulk Architecten General Architecture & Dethier Bouwgenoten are building a family friendly housing block in the heart of Cadix.
Impressive sights and neighbouring architecture! Great and underrated masterplan, by our heroes Atelier JPLX.
