The team B-architecten – OMGEVING wins the competition for the realization of a complex with diverse social facilities and the redevelopment of the Albertplein in Vorst. The ambition of the project is to breathe new life into this important place by focusing on a design that integrates both the architecture (B-Architects) and the public space (OMGEVING) while creating a programmatically social impulse.

The actual Albert Square is defined by a detailed and subtle design that proposes spaces on a human scale. In the proposal, the southern side of the square is given a green character with intimate seating areas around the existing trees. Due to its open and polyvalent character in the northern part of the square, it facilitates the existing activities, including the biomarket and flower market, as well as other future functions.

The realization of the project is the first intervention within the Albert sustainable neighborhood contract.
