The Flanders Architecture Institute provides a forum for Young architects, urban planners and researchers in Flanders. This generation currently occupies a relevant experimental position in architecture and related disciplines. In their work, architecture assumes a wide variety of forms and expressions. Again and again it is given a new interpretation, sometimes less visible and even unprecedented. Each issue of the Young Architects in Flanders series presents a cross section of a particular architectural practice: designs for buildings, theoretical discourse, urban planning studies, artistic installations... The work selected is surprising, original and of considerable importance regarding the position of and critical reflection on contemporary architecture in Flanders.
Alexander D'Hooghe's fascination for the origins of urban design and his thorough discontentment with present developments in urban design research in Europe provide the basis for a project halfway between historical research and speculative scenarios.
