THE ARCHITECTURE OF REUSE IN BRUSSELS

BOOK LAUNCH

What does circular architecture in Brussels look like today?
Over the last two decades, reuse has become a central element of the urban architectural agenda, embraced by both public and private players and fully promoted by BMA. But while circular construction is now a major trend, it can take many forms: from the reuse of materials to the conservation of structures, not to mention the future adaptability of new constructions.

To find out more, join us for the launch of « The Architecture of Reuse in Brussels », a new book published by BMA that explores 14 projects in Brussels, each offering its own different vision of circularity. This publication sets out to demonstrate that circular architecture is not a niche. Our ambition in Brussels is make it a mainstream practice.

The book features projects by 51N4E, AgwA, ATAMA, Anyoji Beltrando, Archipelago, Atelier KANAL, Atelier Kempe Thill, B2Ai, Babini Geysen, BC architects, BC materials, Baukunst, Callebaut, Conix RDBM, EVR, Kaderstudio, Karbon’, Label, NU, Ouest, Rotor, Schenk Hattori, XDGA.

To accompany the book launch, a presentation of projects will be organized with Steven Schenk (Schenk Hattori), Jean Garcin (Karbon’), Olivia Noel (RotorDC) and Olivier Cavens (51N4E). The event will take place under the superb vaulted ceiling of the top floor of the Belliard-Trèves building, designed and built by Philippe Samyn in 1993.

The book will be given out for free.
