LOFT

"Together/Apart" is the design for a complex and concrete residential situation. The focus here is on sustainable space utilization and comfortable cohabitation. For this assignment, we were given a building on the Bijloke campus in Ghent. It's a former hospital ward that now serves as a studio space for the KASK University College.

​

The core of the assignment consisted of a thorough reflection on cohabitation between a couple and one other person (a student, an elderly person, etc.). Our design had to provide an answer to the question of how social cohesion could be improved with sufficient attention to privacy.
