The new tourist office of Ghent is situated in the renovated fish market alongside the city canals. Projections of the latest cultural events on the glass walls, their reflections in the water are meant to catch the tourist’s gaze outside. Information will be searched in three zones; a trigger zone with randomly projected images, a zone where information can be consulted through a tactile table and a pick-up zone for folders or tickets.

The centerpiece of this space is the data table where everyone gathers around and exchanges information about cultural events. A lower part is reserved for disabled people and young children.
