The master plan for this site translated the institution’s innovative approach into an architectural vision. A characteristic feature is the concept of progressing along a path: every young (juvenile) person is first assigned to a closed population, advances during a reorientation period to a semi-open population and finally to a phase of ‘living independently under supervision’ pending reintegration in society. All of these steps along the path occur in different buildings. The buildings have been embedded along a narrow street that runs through the campus to symbolise the ‘straight and narrow’, or a law-abiding route through life.
After construction of the first passive school in Flanders and the passive sports hall, the renovation of this landmark barn-like structure is the third phase in carrying out the master plan. The barn retains its spatiality thanks to application of the box-in-a-box principle. This project is a sustainable project, with the application of the energetic concept ‘Passive House’ and use of ecologic materials.
Context
The master plan for this site translated the institution’s innovative approach into an architectural vision. A characteristic feature is the concept of progressing along a path: every young person is first assigned to a closed population, advances during a reorientation period to a semi-open population and finally to a phase of ‘living independently under supervision’ pending reintegration in society. All of these steps along the path occur in different buildings. The buildings have been embedded along a narrow street that runs through the campus to symbolise the ‘straight and narrow’, or a law-abiding route through life.
After construction of the first passive school in Flanders and the passive sports hall, the renovation of this landmark barn-like structure is the third phase in carrying out the master plan.
Architecture
The barn retains its spatiality thanks to application of the box-in-a-box principle. The rectangular box can function entirely on its own. When the glazed walls are opened, however, the box blends into the barn. On the ground floor there is a meeting area. The upper floor of the box has space for consultation rooms, a doctor’s surgery, a nursing station and some multipurpose rooms.
The buildings have a twofold usage, thus building a symbolic bridge between the institution and the community at large. The sports hall can easily be used by outsiders without affecting life in the institution. A well thought-out layout of the surrounding area and the security concept ensure that the girls cannot abscond and that their privacy is guaranteed when people from the outside use a building.
