Elementary School, Zarren

FELT won the Open Oproep competition for a new primary school in Zarren. The new building aims at blending in with its surroundings and is designed in tune with the adjacent nursery school. A compact two-story volume is positioned in a way it maximizes the open space. Thus creating a big playground that can extend in a public square, linking with the town’s center.
The building itself is characterized by its rational and economic structure consisting of two wings connected by a central hall. This renders a clear and straightforward circulation scheme. The west wing is directed towards the landscape and contains nine classrooms. The other wing houses the more public functions and is directed towards the playground and the town.

Preliminary School & Kindergarten, Berchem

A new masterplan for the Leopold III school in Berchem combines existing and new volumes into a clearly separated nursery and preliminary school. School walls will partly be demolished in order to open up the playgrounds to the neighborhood.
The new additions playfully mimic elements of the existing interbellum architecture. The two main staircases are pronounced in the facades and create a new relation between the building and its residential surroundings.

Clubhouse, Molenbeek

The project site is situated in a very dense neighborhood with a serious lack of public space. Our site, a courtyard inside a building block, is currently used as a parking lot. The projects goal was to create a new home base for the Chiro-youth. Concepts like flexibility, durability and multiversity were paramount. FELT therefore designed a highly compact building, saving budget in space for the thorough renovation of the courtyard. Turning it into a multi-functional square and/or playground. This way the project accommodates not only the demands of the client, it also seizes the opportunity to contribute to the public realm in this overpopulated neighborhood.
