A city house with a distinct, architectural facade and many characteristic Art Deco elements in the interior.

The wish of the new owners to open the closed back to the north-facing garden.

We started with that approach.

Centrum ALM in Berchem by Crepain Binst Architecture nv

A former hospital in Berchem (Antwerp) now serves as the ALM-Anttec conference and training centre. The initial architectural competition was designed to meet the urgent need to increase the surface area by adding two halls, a foyer and a separate training building. While respecting the existing situation, all the new catering functions were combined to form a transparent and reflective garden pavilion to the rear, with the associated training building on one side.
