Challenge
From mono-functional office park to mixed urban fabric
Brainpark was designed as a closed office environment, active only during working hours and disconnected from daily urban life. Phase One needed to introduce housing and public space while carefully initiating a broader transformation of the area—without disrupting its scale, infrastructure or long-term development potential.
Approach
A strategic first move
Phase One is conceived as the starting framework of the Max Euwekwartier masterplan. Four residential buildings are positioned to define public space, green routes and future connections, establishing a clear spatial logic that guides subsequent phases and anchors long-term urban change.
