Theaterplein and surroundings

The design by Secchi, Viganò and Jaspaert gives the huge variety of urban and historical qualities on and around the square all the opportunity they need to manifest themselves, without allowing the communal idea of public space to lapse into chaos.
The square consists of a single inclined plane (2%). It links the theatre entrances to an urban garden and activates the various bordering elements around the square. An immense canopy with slender columns defines an outdoor stage for a variety of urban activities and, at the same time, makes it harder for specific groups to appropriate the square.
