In the documentary ‘Plannen voor de toekomst’ (Bertrand Lafontaine and Steffen Verpoorten, 2021) architect, artist and orbanist Luc Deleu and his T.O.P. office staff look back on more than half a century of architectural and urbanist research.
Registration is mandatory. Book your tickets (click here).
From the first proposals in the 1970s, multi-year-plans such as ‘Scale & Perspective’, ‘The Unadapted City’ and ‘Orban Space’ to the current design lab `Darling Springs', T.O.P. office stands out due to its pioneering work. Decades before (now increasingly redundant) terms such as ‘sustainability’ and 'eco-building' became common vocabulary Deleu and his team tested how architects, urbanists and planners could inhabit planet Earth in a more intelligent and responsible way. It makes T.O.P. office -apart from a place for critical and in-depth design by research- an unparalleled independent knowledge centre.
Good to know: Until 26 September you can visit the exhibition ‘Luc Deleu & T.O.P. office - Future Plans 1970-2020’ at De Singel in Antwerp. The book is available at the CIVA Bookshop.
