We collaborated with Delta Atelier on a journey of dialogue, exploration and knowledge sharing around the challenge of Circular (City) Ports. Discover this journey supported by various working sessions, debates, research and exhibitions in the context of the ‘cultural space’ created by the International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam and its Brussels component You Are Here. While some of the suggested actions were temporary, others have become permanent and tangible.
A deep dive in the shared process
The Circular (City) Ports theme has its roots in the Delta Atelier, which emerged step by step already in 2016-2017 (What preceded). From the moment the theme was prioritised, it went through three phases during 2018-2020: Phase 1. Exploration, Phase 2. Valorisation and Phase 3. Strategising the next steps. Take a deeper dive into our process of intervision and working sessions, debates, research and exhibitions.
