Back to the Roots
the bridge between the past and the futureBack to the Roots
the bridge between the past and the futureSamenvatting
The brand image of Tilburg as Textile City has faded with the downfall of the industry and the subsequent loss of most of the factory buildings in the city fabric. To commemorate this past and to make it part again of the DNA of Tilburg, the typical textile mill is taken up again and studied, to find out if the old volumes and configurations could be applied to present day programs in housing and urban development. In a design for a large plot along the Piushaven, old parts of a destroyed mill have been redrawn and rearranged, filled with a mixed housing program, shared workspaces, and additional facilities. Because more housing was needed to make it a feasible project for future demands, new volumes were added on top in a contrasting manner.
