Abstract

How can architecture contribute to society? By customization. With designs that reflect a cultural and a social ambition. The 118 projects in Flanders that ambition this Architecture book form. Together they tell a story about the role of architecture in the complex European context. Recent developments in architecture are addressed in thirteen essays. In four central themes – life, city, scale and shape – they treat current issues regarding shared space use, reuse and repurposing, the status of the public domain and the Visual language for large-scale interventions in the city. Also the search for typological solutions and formal figures is discussed. Photo essays by leading architectural photographers in each theme. With texts by Christoph Grafe (editor-in-Chief), Audrey Contesse, Sofie De Caigny, Michiel Dehaene, Bart Talwar, Maarten Van Den Driessche, Christophe Van Gerrewey, Koen Van Synghel, Ward Verbakel, Bart Verschaffel, Els Vervloesem and Philippe Viérin. Photo essays by Anja Hellebaut and Olmo Peeters.

Abstract

The city is an always changing human experiment. But in the last half century, it has changed more than ever before - with little sign of slowing down. As this phenomenon takes place, an increasing number of architects, innovators and policy-makers are rethinking the city to make the most of space and resources. This book chronicles the design of urban futures. From apps designed to curb food waste to inventive fresh water infrastructure, The Ideal City explores the many initiatives and experiments, all with the shared goal of making the cities of tomorrow a happier, healthier and more inclusive place to be.
