LIVE-WORKCOMPLEX

​

The historical urban fabric of Liège, characterized by terraced construction, informs the foundation of my design vision. Embracing the city's pronounced topographical variations, my plan integrates these natural features into a harmonious blend of landscape and urban space. The design concept envisions a building that seamlessly flows from the mountains into the city, dissolving the boundaries between nature and the built environment.

This vision transforms a low-quality public parking lot into a vibrant space where greenery infiltrates the urban core, enhancing livability. Supported by two pedestals, the structure creates a public realm where work and leisure intertwine, fostering community engagement. At the heart, or 'belly', of the building, the interplay of nature, architecture, and daily life cultivates a sense of belonging, offering residents a tranquil yet dynamic urban oasis.
