Open-up fabric
Act architecturally as an urban designer. By understanding valuable buildings in structure, tectonics, character and adaptive capacity, you can give an urban design unexpected possibilities. Through this understanding, an urban design
process can emerge from the inside out. It generates ideas at the level of a building for urban and cultural program and gives reason to the relationship with the outdoor space. Because of the constant iteration from the inside out and from the outside in, a design will evolve and can be anchored in the carrying structures of the city. At the same time the design will extract the maximum strength and inspiration from the existing or new buildings involved. The open fabric generates a patchwork of private, collective, parochial and public places in indoor and outdoor space. It could highly stimulate a surprising, inclusive and adaptable city in the future.
