This event, part of the 'Winter Lectures 2022: Sluisbuurt in execution' series, focuses on housing quality and affordability within the context of the Sluisbuurt development. Speakers will discuss the design of the Justus residential tower, challenges in realizing mid-segment rental housing, and broader lessons for high-rise living quality and affordability.
The fourth installment of the Winter Lectures 2022 series, themed 'Sluisbuurt in execution,' delves into the crucial aspects of housing quality and affordability in contemporary urban development. The event will feature insights into the design and realization of 'Justus,' the first residential tower in the Sluisbuurt, which aims to provide 289 mid-segment rental units starting from 2024. Branimir Medic from de Architekten Cie., the firm behind the design, will elaborate on the architectural concepts and the hurdles in creating affordable rental housing. Furthermore, Martine Vledder will present a reflection on lessons learned from the 'Wonen op Hoogte' (Living at Height) research, conducted by a committee led by the Van Eesteren Museum, offering valuable perspectives applicable to the Sluisbuurt project. The program also includes panel discussions involving urban planners, developers, and housing experts to further explore the complexities of achieving high living quality and ensuring affordability in high-rise buildings.
Tickets are available for both on-location attendance at Perdu (€15) and for a livestream (€5). A discounted livestream pass-partout is also available for €20.
