Within the framework of A Happy Place activity and the transformation of the alleys of the Cité Hellemans, Alive Architecture in collaboration with BRAVVO organized nine workshops between April 2022 and June 2022 to co-design and co-produce some temporary urban interventions. Those include several small activities as music, food and games as well as a large scale of urban furniture. This object was co-constructed by the team with the participants and was painted by the partners of the A-Place project in collaboration with the local children from the neighbourhood during the inauguration on 24.06.2022.

Participants
Institutions: Brussels Housing (Logement Bruxellois / Brussel Woningen)
Brussels Housing Institution is the manager of several social housing blocs within the city of Brussels, including both social housing complexes of the project and the playground itself

The project intends to reach the inhabitants of both social housing complexes with a specific attention upon the young population. Involving them actively into the process may improve not only the image of the site but also the respect for this fragile part of inhabitants.
