In Global Perspectives , master students of the Faculty of Architecture and arts at Hasselt University collaborate with students from other parts of the world envisioning inspiring, positive futures for challenged sites and communities. Here, ideas are crystallized in the design of a series of acupunctural interventions to create connective places for people of all walks of life. The studio's ambitions lie in searching for an architecture that is regenerative and distributive, building upon local (hi)stories, human and natural riches.
In this parallel design studio, the architecture peers from different countries, share knowledge and dreams, references and visions. They gain experience and widen their understanding of the world in the cultural interchange of ideas and joint research-by-design journey.
Every Global perspectives edition is named after the location(s) it designerly researches.
