On August 23, 2024, during the Noorderzon Festival in Groningen, join us for HOOP, a thought-provoking series of conversations curated by GRAS. This event is designed to delve into the future of our cities, landscapes, and communal living spaces. HOOP, as a performance, leverages social challenges to spark reflection and foster optimism for a better tomorrow.
In this edition, Michiel Van Driessche and Ben van der Meer, city architects of Groningen, will engage in a stimulating dialogue with Kristiaan Borret, city architect of Brussels. Together, they will explore hopeful and forward-thinking approaches to urban design, focusing on themes such as breaking free from conventional practices, prioritizing renovation over demolition, and embracing our existing cities as layered, living entities ripe for renewal.
