The city of Mortsel is under great pressure to develop more open spaces, which is why there was a need for a clear framework to ensure that compaction takes place in a high-quality manner, in function of a sustainable living environment.

Buur and Endeavour pinpointed the challenges and ambitions for a sustainable Mortsel, worked on a vision of the desired fabric, and mapped priority densification zones.
