@deLocated at the Bélliard Street, the building is part of a larger urban development scheme which aims at transforming and upgrading the European district of the city of Brussels. An entirely see-through office, the object stands as an example to the project goals, which aim at ultimate transparency within the workplace. An office transformation with retail shops and restaurants, which strips an old industrial building down to its bare bones and uses only glass with stainless steel infill to build up the interior. The intention is to create an office space which maximum attractivity and the highest possible spaciousness, in order to provide as pleasant a working environment as possible. “We are moving into a transparent society, businesses are becoming more open with the public, and people care more about what goes on behind closed doors. In that way, a clear workspace leaves nothing questionable, nothing hidden; it generates trust.” (quote by MVRDV co-founder Winy Maas); the idea is to generate trust, and it is an opportunity for the building itself to become a reminder of the values of the European Union.
