International Design Workshop week IDW 2020 re-Act by design: Commons: Capping of the ring road and fractures of society: design and build for the meantime
Abstract: Re-Act by design is the theme of an annual series of international workshop weeks for master students architecture, interior architecture, product development, heritage studies, urban and regional development, of the faculty of design sciences at the university of Antwerp. The capping of the heavily congested ring road in Antwerp will bridge gaps between areas and communities that have been separated for decades. For some communities this new piece of infrastructure is seen as an asset for new opportunities, whilst elsewhere communities are not really interested and even afraid of being connected with each other. Moreover, the long construction period of the new infrastructure risks to increase separation of the involved communities, rather than bringing them closer to each other. Can the cap of the ring become a new common? And for whom? Can temporary commons provide solutions for overcoming the decrease of interaction during the time of construction? Can the construction period be an occasion for intensifying communication between communities? The city administration wants to involve all inhabitants of these neighbourhoods in the definition of a program, and solutions for the meantime. IDW aims to lever this process.
