"Our proposal aims to make an isolated part of the city livable. The I located project is in a breaking point (A59) with lack of program and identity. Therefore, we propose a system that connects the two sides (the industrial and the historical) with a green mean of transport and thematic programs (mobility, logistic & creative). We take care of the milieus by integrating the existing natural & urban infrastructures and adapting them to this new place. The outcome is green and livable, a new center in Waalwijk where people live and work."
