Building for Brussels: U.S. book launch, March 11th

aileen — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 17:29:06 +0000

Project Projects is pleased to welcome Joachim Declerck,
co-founder of Architecture Workroom Brussels, for an exclusive U.S. book launch to celebrate the publication of Building for Brussels: Architecture and Urban Transformation in Europe,
44 Projects. A limited number of copies will be available for purchase at the event.

As the European Union’s capital, Brussels finds itself in a schizophrenic situation: it is the 3rd richest metropolitan region in Europe, yet is confronted with an unemployment rate of about 20% and demographic growth that will reach up to 120% by 2030. Building for Brussels explores how other European cities have deployed architecture and strategic transformations as tools to respond to major urban challenges. The book presents 44 contemporary interventions by architects, including: BIG, MVRDV, OMA, Diener & Diener, Christian Kerez, West 8, Ateliers Jean Nouvel, Dominique Perrault, Xaveer De Geyter, and many more.

With editions available in English, Dutch, and French, the 324-page book addresses these complex urban issues in a manner accessible to a broad audience. A magazine-like format, designed by New York-based studio Project Projects, contextualizes the featured projects with essays; interviews with policy-makers, designers, scholars, and critics; as well as over 150 analytical charts, diagrams, and maps created specifically for the book.
