Reconversion of an old mill into an interpretation centre and an incubator in Anderlecht, Belgium.

An action within the project „Actopolis. The Art of Action / Bucharest-Sud. Build your own city!”

We asked the inhabitants of the southern part of Bucharest would would they do if they were mayors. Moreover, we invited in the mayor’s office all those people who at least once asked themselves “What can I do for my city?” The mobile office was specially designed to inspire people to make decisions that can transform the city into a city belonging to the people.

House E lies in a peripheric residential neighborhood of the Transylvanian city. Blocks of flats invaded the area in the socialist period and, since 1990, a rapid gentrification alters the modest, yet very decent dwellings in a quite brutal way.

The rural heritage in Romania is going away at an even faster rate than in the cities: “poor” materials, lack of space, confort and apreciation from their very owners give old houses rather poor chances.

Designing a contemporary Orthodox Church is notoriously difficult. Dorin Ştefan’s project for a parish church on the outskirts of the town of Alba Iulia is perfectly canonic without simplifying or reinterpreting ancient forms.

A former distillery becomes a connection  between past and future, between the historic centre and a decayed former activity area. The visionary intervention creates a new landmark on the map of cultural venues and also an evi­dent stimulus for neighborhood regeneration.

An apartment building from the socialist period in Slovakia is reinvented not just on the outside – with a new façade – but also through the inner planimetria.
