Repurposing
We recently welcomed a master's student in interior architecture from the University of Antwerp to our new property. Dieter Marien gave a tour of the former church buildings designed by Lode Wouters & Karel Angst, explaining our intentions for our new office. We hope to move in here soon, but we are also curious to see what new purpose this master's student will give this place in her assignment!

Future prospects
We welcomed a student from around the corner, from the elementary school of Xaverius College. Ine Verhoeven spoke with this aspiring architect in an interview for his presentation. Who knows what else he has in store in the future!

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.
Society's potential
Tom Vermeylen was a guest speaker at the VVSG's Woondag 2025 event.
In a session with Ruth Soenen, Patrick Janssens, and Wim Van Lancker, he discussed the advantages of affordable housing as a catalyst and lever for contemporary sustainable urban and rural development.
