B-Architecten’s Mundo-A in Antwerp won an ARC19 award in the Architecture category, while Callebaut Architecten and Bureau Bouwtechniek alongside Korteknie Stuhlmacher Architecten won an Interior Award for the Predikheren.
Project Mundo-a is a bio-ecological and passive office building for social-profit organisations on a complex, urban site.
The Mundo-a office building lives up to all the recent notions on ecological and ethical demands of sustainability.
The restoration and repurposing of the dilapidated baroque Dominican monastery (the Predikherenklooster) into a new city library have resulted in study spaces, an attic full of books, a monastery garden and many rooms.
The architecture competition ARC Awards is an initiative of the Dutch architecture review De Architect.
