This research explores whether the intrinsic spatial surplus of the post - war, detached dwellings and low-density, dispersed residential neighbo urhoods in Flanders, holds potential for transformation in line with con temporary housing standards and demands. This work adopted an architectu ral approach in order to investigate the feasibility of transformative s trategies. Hence, it forms one of three complementary tracks of the FWO funded project Large, Underused Dwellings in Flanders, and is based on t ypological and design-based research, whereas the other two tracks have respectively studied the shared problem from a geographical and a discur sive perspective. This doctoral project has also taken on a second goal which is to frame such design-based enquiry in an academic context. As m ain source for data gathering throughout the entire project, 10 municipa lities across Flanders, with a significant share of detached dwellings, were selected as case studies. About 80% of the Flemish housing stock consists of single family houses, of which 42% are detached dwellings. Many of these were built on spacio us lots in a semi-rural or suburban environment during the massive subur banisation process which was started after the Second World War. The det ached dwelling in a semi-rural, green environment has been a key buildin g stone in this process, and is still perceived as the ideal housing sit uation by many Flemings. The structure of small-scale ownership ensures continuity, and the system facilitates incremental infill of empty lots and retrofitting existing dwellings. This housing model and its mode of production can however be seen as problematical, because they no longer match demographical and socio-economic developments. The ageing populati on, and the decreasing average household size, result in a demand for ot her residential typologies: smaller, more compact, and preferably closer to urbanised cores. Moreover, academic researchers, spatial planners an d designers associate the continuation of this mode of spatial productio n with high emission levels, traffic congestion and loss of open space. Hence there is an emerging interest in, and a need for, alternative mode ls and strategies of transformation. The main body of the work is preceded by an exploration of designerly re search, which emerged as a methodology proper to architectural research. Chapter two describes how different approaches to designerly research a re used in practice and academia, sharing the goal to address inert and ill-defined problems. A theoretical framework for exchange between scien tific and design-based methodologies, allowing the development of transd isciplinary modes of enquiry into ill-defined problems is proposed. Cons equentially, the thesis develops such a process of exchange. Complementa ry research approaches build on tentative observations and results, and contribute to the understanding of design strategies intervening in the residential environment on different scale levels. The viewpoints of inh abitants of detached dwellings regarding potential adaptive strategies a re presented in chapter three. In chapter four, the viewpoints of inhabi tants are complemented with a typological analysis of a sample of 65 dwe llings documented during field work, in order to determine potential and resistance vis-à-vis transformative concepts on the scale of the dwelli ng. Chapter five enquires how professional actors involve the detached d welling and potential design strategies for transformation in their work . A site- and case specific design approach is explored in chapter six, based on a workshop with students in interior architecture and architect ure. The workshop investigated plausible conditions and narratives to im plement transformative design concepts on the level of the dwelling. The thesis concludes by reviewing these diverse perspectives, addressing th e paradoxes and alliances which are exposed, and outlines how these prot otypical strategies could impact concrete municipalities. This analysis informs the formulation of three visions on transformation of low densit y residential environments, combining the strategies of reconfiguration (the retrofitting of existing dwellings) replacement (demolishing existi ng dwellings and replacing these with alternative dwelling types on site ) and removal (the demolition of dwellings in remote locations followed by densification in more central areas). These visions outline potential evolutions towards differentiation and densification of Flemish residential neighbourhoods.

A l'instar de toutes les métropoles européennes, Bruxelles fait face à de grands défis urbains et sociaux : démographie et flux migratoires, économie urbaine, mobilité, nouveaux quartiers, équipements publics. De Copenhague à Tirana, de Londres à Madrid, en passant par Milan, Zurich, Rome, Gand, Hambourg, Anvers, La Haye, Zaanstad, Turnhout, Barcelone, Bilbao, Paris, Bordeaux, Boulogne-Billancourt, Lyon, Lille ou Amsterdam, ce livre rassemble les expériences positives de 44 projets urbains exemplaires et novateurs qui montrent que l'Europe devient pour Bruxelles un véritable laboratoire de réflexion et d'inspiration : transformation de zones délaissées en lieux dynamiques à fortes attractivités économique et culturelle, logement social intégré, tramway et métro fédérateurs et créateurs de nouveaux symboles.
