Architecture in Autumn 2024

How do shared spaces influence the way we live? In autumn 2024, the Flanders Architecture Institute (VAi) examines the different facets of cohabitation and living together. In De Singel’s exhibition space, Brussels-based office Dogma examines the potential of ‘the urban villa’ as a cooperative housing model. The young office graft redefines the relationship between Flemish housing culture and landscape planning. Masterpieces from the VAi collection shed light on the historic Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp (KMSKA) and the urban planning ideals that Antwerp South shared with other 19th-century European cities. And our Family Sunday explores alternative and sustainable forms of living.

In short, a wealth of activities to fill your cultural calendar!
