EMPOWERING SUBURBIA: architectural strategies in Linden

The new task our Sint Lucas students are working on seeks to present architectural interventions, demonstrating coherence with the previously presented micro-urban strategies and solutions as how to empower the studied LINDEN suburban area to adapt to recent social, economic and environmental challenges, respecting as much the current composition of inhabitants and their future needs.
As many architectural interventions follow urban infill strategies or densification processes in suburban regios, these low dense landscapes are vitally renewed to obtain a more sustainable use of space.

Objective

The main goal of this latest task is to present “architectural sequences” within the Linden area that illustrate the impact and efficiency of the further developed micro- urban strategies. The architectural interventions should give an answer to the previously discussed problems and potentials for the selected pilot projects and prove coherence with the proposed model of proximity.

Our students will upload their (final) presentations as a post on this blog.
