    Radial Views
    From March 13 to May 25 deSingel in Antwerp hosted an exhibition of work by interior and landscape architect Petra Blaisse entitled Radial Views. But ‘exhibition’ is perhaps not quite the right word. Blaisse wrote a scenario for this Belgian art campus and made a number of subtle interventions. Rooted to its context, her work is difficult to exhibit.

    According to the website the exhibition was to open at 1 o’clock. I arrived 20 minutes early and wandered around the building. Suddenly I noticed an open door that led to the inner garden of the art campus. I looked around, saw no-one and slipped ins…

    Author Steven Jacobs had a mischievous twinkle in his eye when he presented 'a monograph about an non-existing architect' in his opening speech. The book is issued by 010 Publishers, which obviously saw some substance in his vision. It’s a claim wort…

    Design Intelligence – Speaks & Co in Delft
    In Belgium the words of Robert Somol during the Projective Landscape conference would probably have caused a minor political earthquake. But unfortunately the conference took place at the TU in Delft, and that turned out to be the perfect place to reel off catch-phrases of all sorts about the status of design in what they tell us is a post-critical, post-ideological, post-political, post-historical, post-urban and post-capitalist world.

    Symposium temperatures rose to their hottest right at the end when, during the plenary debate on Friday afternoon, Willem Jan Neutelings provoked the projective character of the debaters. What, he asked, was he to do if after the next local elections…

    Thin Line between being Radical and Naive
    Take one of the assigned plots in Antwerp, Belgium and create a design for the headquarters of the Flemish nationalist political party Vlaams Belang. Or draw a concept for it’s rather extreme Islamic opponent AEL (Arabic European League). How should architects operate in such political, ethnic or religious matters? Is there a role for them at all? Is architecture ‘neutral’ and only about aesthetics or is it acceptable that spaces and buildings propagate implicit or explicit messages? If so, to what extend? Maybe architects even can assist in bridging the gap between different ethnic and socio-political groups?

    These and other questions were at stake at the international design seminar INDESEM, organised by the 'bouwkunde' student association Stylos annually, sometimes every two years. Eighty students took part, half of them Dutch and half of them from abro…

    Tune in & Turn on
    Is Luc Deleu a realist, idealist or visionary? To be honest, it's a question I'd prefer not to answer. After seeing the exhibition Values in Antwerp's MUHKA, I'm occupied by just one question. What purpose is served by the work of Luc 'Self-Power Man' Deleu, the self-appointed orbanist?

    Orbanism is the open concept employed by Luc Deleu. »Orbanism stands for a metaphysical and material structuring of the world for the common good, the public interest. Orbanism aims for a dynamic balance between order and chaos, architecture and life…
