WORKac est le bureau d’architecture international de renom de Amale Andraos et Dan Wood implanté à New York. Amale Andraos est également doyen de la Columbia University Graduate School of Planning and Preservation. Dans le cadre de cette exposition, WORKac focalise son attention sur leurs bâtiments, offrant une place centrale à des notions telles que durabilité, architecture circulaire, zéro déchet, urban farming et immeubles zéro émission. L’application pratique de l’eau, son usage et sa réutilisation par les consommateurs/résidents jouent un rôle important dans cette approche. En plus de ses propres projets, WORKac braque aussi les projecteurs sur les ‘Floating Cities’ des architectes américains légendaires du groupe Ant Farm.
En collaboration avec Cultuurcentrum Brugge et WORKac
