Set up in a rapidly changing densely populated neighbourhood, the Antwerp-Simons project intelligently develops into a complex program while harmoniously integrating into the existing context.
In effect, this project offers a fundamental school of 490 students, 51 apartments of various sizes, a building for the ONE, and a childcare facility. This heterogeneous program is integrated into both new constructions and an existing building.
In addition to the substantial program, the challenge of this project is to reintroduce urban coherence into this neighbourhood mainly made up of on one hand closed islands, and on the other new frontal constructions and bordered by high-rise buildings built on open islands.
