SAQ

Coming Soon!

In the Summer 2008 SAQ was approached by Design Hotels to aid in the creation of a proposal for an 80,000 sm site comprised of 4 existing buildings and the addition of a 5th unifying building that could run throughout the complex composed of retail, hotel, cinema and office space.

By an important multifunctional program, the reactivation of existing buildings, plazas and a composition of newly built volumes, the SAQ proposal is a total concept that has the ambition to anchor the complex back in the surrounding urban tissue.

'BotoxCloud’s' design and physical orientation has a futuristic touch, which explores the idea of pluralistic or probabilistic architecture. In other words, the installation yields various possible structural manifestations. For example, when the light comes through the paper models, its physicality changes. 

The city of Kortrijk wants to develop a future scenario for a central urban block located just outside the direct access of the shopping center K and the station area.

The district is characterized by its heterogeneous and introvert character with some out of scale entities as the former main building of Belgacom.

SAQ build, in collaboration with developer Re-Vive, a sustainable business complex with a new concept of modularity and individual configuration.
