Together with UMA, our proposal for the daycare centre and commercial space located at the heart of Place Schweitzer in Berchem-Sainte-Agathe has been selected as the winning project.🍀 Here is a collection of documents submitted during the competition, reflecting the project’s initial intentions ! A foundational phase that has since evolved significantly, and that we’re happy to share ! The building features a dual orientation that generates two complementary architectural attitudes. The façade facing the square adopts a robust and protective materiality, suited to strong sunlight and the intensity of the urban context. The inner façade, oriented towards the garden, creates a softer atmosphere with a calming colour palette, entirely dedicated to play, well-being and the children’s development. The ground floor opens generously onto the neighbourhood and maintains a strong connection with the square. The shop and the parents’ entrance enliven the base of the building, while cross views from the public space offer glimpses into the inner garden. @uma.brussels Stability @l.a.b.e.a.u.bv Climate @jzhpartners Acoustics De Fonseca

Greening of Place Flagey and Sainte-Croix Flagey Square has been the heart of Brussels since its redevelopment in 2008, hosting concerts, markets, fountains, and daily life. Our recent interventions have transformed it into a greener, more resilient public space. By carefully reading the square’s layers and history, the design introduced subtle demineralization, added shaded green areas, and improved rainwater management, all while preserving its familiar textures and rhythms. The result is a space that honors its past while meeting the needs of today’s city and its communities, both human and non-human.
