WANDERSPACE/ZWERFRUIMTE
Belgian architecture firm RE-ST researches complex spatial issues and seeks solutions by investigating wanderspace, the ‘built-over or undeveloped space that we have produced together, but underuse on a daily basis.’ For their 10-year anniversary, they compiled this brick-sized book that explores the question: ‘Why do we build more than we need?’
This is an oh-so-important book in our current society, where we run the risk of paving every last bit of open space left. It was a great pleasure for Sarah to work on this project.
